WELL MORE COURSES HAVE CLOSED THIS WEEK for the season, and it’s likely that even if the snow melts this week, there will not be many outside options left to play.

So lets hope that it gets warm enough where there might be a couple of outside days left. #fingerscrossed

I finally had a chance to get back and enjoy the great food, at the Green Street Grille in Bensenville. While there is a little bit of road constrction going on in the neighborhood. It’s still worth it to stop in, and enjoy the GSG. Since there is no dome at White Pines this winter, the GSG is the place to spend your time, and your dimes this winter while in Bensenville.
