James & Susan's Adventures

This is the horse track. It is actually a hole. Number 7 and 16. Course only has 9 holes so we played it twice. I didn’t do any better the second 9. My swing is gone. You tee off and your second shot will be over the track. A very Continue Reading

This is the crossing from one hole to the next. You go over the track and the signs tell you horses have the right of way!! The track is still in operation. Not sure how often they have races, but the barns have like 80 stalls. Cool place. S & Continue Reading

This golf course we played today is on an old race horse track. Reminded me of one we played outside of pine hurst one time. This is the last hole and if you look close enough you can see our RV in the background. We parked and stayed here last Continue Reading

This small cutie was built in the 1890’s. It too is on the Swaner Preserve. At one time the entire farm was lost in a poker game by Andrew Young. His sister was married to a millionaire and when he died she inherited his wealth and saved the family farm. Continue Reading

This is the same one Soldier Hollow, just a different hole. These mountains are massive compared to NC mountains. The course was pretty flat compared to the surrounding mountains. A nice day outing. I think we finished around 6:15 last night and people were still starting a round. Great outdoors Continue Reading

This barn was on the road on the way to the golf course. Actually across the street from one of the holes (13) and I found it to be interesting. Beautiful wood. And of course the background is incredible. Something about the barns and the covered bridges we have encountered Continue Reading
