Hic Sunt Laganum
We were fortunate as another point had been located on a golf course, we unfortunately did not have any golf balls to start the trip. A call to the club house netted us permission to proceed onto the course provided we follow proper etiquette and not disrupt any players that may be out. We arrived just after the clubhouse closed and we observed no golfers as we walked out. A keen on the water traps netted us a ball that was retrievable from the shore without wading. The overhead views showed the point in an area of dense vegetation. Upon arrival we pleasantly discovered that the area had been mown down making the GPS dance extra easy, we located several balls that had survived the winter and the mower and brought them together for a photo op. One scrubbing later the lost children were ready for their commemorative picture.
