JOE IS STILL LOOKING FOR SEVERAL BIRDIES IN EACH GAME...

Fort Brown Memorial Golf Course ~ where Joe shot a 39 on the front nine this past week and birdied three times on that nine.
For those of you reading this and aren't golf experts, that's a good nine!  As there are 18 holes/another nine on the backside/where Joe shot a 43/we will say he had a good day!  Not everyday he golfs is this spectacular!  Some days it's kinda stinky. (His words, not mine!) 

I took the picture of Joe standing in front of the sign at the entrance of the golf course.  As I turned around, up on the berm, there was a Border Patrol vehicle.  Fort Brown is in the USA, but the Rio Grande is only 200 feet from at least four of the golf holes, so there are Border Patrols making their rounds, as you are golfing.  The above sign is located in the clubhouse.  It is possible to hit your ball into Mexico, but that would be a very erratic shot. 

Joe also golfs at VICC and Brownsville Golf Center, (no picture here, but on a previous blog.)  He relates to me that they are fun courses, approximately the same difficulty as the courses in WI. One difference is that they lack nice grass, but it's only $12 to walk! 
Joe will walk, unless it's a cart only course.  Exercise!
Some would say, as John Feinstein book indicates: (Actually a saying "borrowed" from Mark Twain.)               
                    A GOOD WALK SPOILED!
