5:36am tee time, which would have been really dark, but because of the inefficiency of the staff, didn't even get our carts until 5:50am. Still a bit dark, but the delay actually worked out to our advantage. (This time) Following a twosome, who were initially slow, but eventually picked up their pace, so pace of play turned out OK, about 2 1/2 hours.

Course was in decent condition. The greens were not as good as the last time I played. Just did not roll all that true. Fairways were very tight and afforded plenty of roll. Bunkers were not maintained even a little. Rough was very playable.

I'm always impressed by how well the maintenance staff maintains this course. It is my understanding that they have a rather small crew. Despite the fact that they allow golfers to tee off very early, the maintenance crew rarely intrudes with play.

I will say that I missed Ruth not working in the pro shop. She is such a breath of fresh air and a pleasure to deal with. A real positive to begin the day.
