Thinking about going out to the barn and burn some propane and starting the clay process on the Z. But then again maybe NOT

Well it is Friday and pay day so it ain't all bad. Still working full time and dealing with employees that are doing stupid stuff. Got to go complete an employee misconduct investigation today. Gonna take a trip to Las Vegas just to drive the Strip and experience the ghost town this weekend. We Spring is here as the temps will be in the 70s and 80s over the next two weeks with no rain.

Talked to a few friends last week that live in Vegas and Yes they say it is a Ghost Town and the Strip is a little creepy. My wife and I are still hoping that our August trip will still happen. Don't think our June trip will, but we have our fingers crossed. Be sure to take some pictures.

I hope they are open too. They employee thousands of people. The rumor is that it may be as long as 18 months to two years. I drove through Laughlin on Tuesday and it was a ghost town and very creepy. There were people working on the roads an not much else. Only saw a couple of cars and a city bus with no one on it. Just plain weird. I will post some pictures!

We have plane tickets to Alaska for the end of June so we have our fingers crossed.

need opinions:

friends want to go golf sunday.

places have been diligent with safety precautions (employees with gloves, single person per cart, etc...) and i would love to golf but i feel like it's irresponsible maybe?

i mean we wont be close to each other, wipe down the carts with lysol wipes, they altered course to have raised cups so no touching flag sticks or inside the cups.

i mean how risky is it really? i know the 3 other guys i'd be going with.

i'm at a loss. am i being a good citizen by thinking its a dumb idea or is it just over-cautious and overthinking?

Just because you know them doesn't mean you know where they've been or what they've been doing (literally why I don't shake people's hands). Personally, I wouldn't risk it, but I'm probably one of the few people who is enjoying the quarantine because I like watching extroverts break mentally.

Same here. They can't handle it.

There's a pretty sweet driving range that's open here as well. It's a big facility with a number of short distance options, so they offer free push carts for your bag for the walk to the long distance hitting range. Clubhouse is closed and carts are not available. To pay, they have an iPad with a credit card swipe (no cash) - you just swipe your card and don't have to touch anything. Might check it out on Sunday

I don't see any problem with it if everyone is responsible. Very basic precautions can make a significant impact in your defense against transmission.

we went a few weeks ago even though i felt weird about it but i wore gloves, wiped down the entire cart area, kept distance, etc...

the course went above and beyond as well. carts were already in the parking lot spread out with personal parking space next to it, all employees gloved up and keeping away, only allowed 2 people in the clubhouse at a time to pay. seemed pretty well ran set up.

also the raised cup thing was a surprise but very smart move.

The clubs open here don't allow anyone in the clubhouse. Reserve online, pay online, walk up to window and they check your name off the list for your tee time. Carts waiting for you in the parking lot.

Agree on the raised cup idea. Smart
