We were playing once and the eldest owner was sitting nearby on the bench watching over the course. I walked up to him and told him how I used to love playing here as a kid and love bringing my kids. We talked for a while and then we both departed. He caught us on the 18th hole and gave us a bunch of free passes. He didn't have to do that and I was looking for it either. I just wanted him to know how much we all appreciated what he did to keep the course running. Very nice guy to talk to...
No crowds because it - well - stunk.
