I spent the 12-23 of April in Ramstein for some medical appointments and got in 10 rounds up there. If I has it to do over I would have taken my own clubs. The staff there was wonderful to me and I wished we had a base course in Sigonella like they do up there. Down here we travel 1.5 hours to one course and 34 minutes to the other.

If any of you golfers live in Central Florida or are visiting the Orlando area on or about June 4 the Marine Corps Combat Correspondents Association's Florida Chapter is sponsoring its annual tournament at the Ridgewood Lake Golf Club with an 8 a.m. shotgun start. The tournament benefits America's wounded Marines and is a bargain at $75 which includes golf, lunch, all the Heineken products you can handle, etc. Send me a private email if intereted.

In the past 10 years I've played approx 150 courses, 70 of which are military base courses (many of them multiple times) -- all CONUS, except for Hawaii (Oahu). Access to these base courses has been my biggest military retirement benefit (except for the monthly check), although in a few years that second priority will likely shift to Tricare.

Mary: When the volcanic ash now blanketing Europe and UK ends try space-a-ing to Mildenhall then go up to Scotland. I started my adventures in 1979 and managed to play all of the Open Championship (British Open) venues in Scotland several times over in my 30+visits. Also have played manyt courses in Germany and Spain. My reco would be leave the clubs at home and rent when traveling abroad. I say this only because it is a chore lugging clubs and suitcases. If interested, send me a private email.

Golf courses are very good places on base to have breakfast.

Bowling alleys are good places to eat late when everthing else is closed.

Mary -- if you have a car and have the time, you might check out the Carolina Lakes course at Shaw AFB; Wrenwoods course at Charleston AFB; Redbank Plantation course at the Naval Weapons Station in Goose Creek; and the Legends course at Parris Island; all very nice courses for a great price.

I'm sure that we aren't the only space-a folks to drag our clubs along on some trips. We are currently at Fort Jackson in Columbia, South Carolina. They have 2 terrific 18 hole courses which we really enjoyed. $30 for both of us, walking. BOQ is $57 a night. Great golf holiday in the lovely southern spring.
