what a BEAUTIFUL day in Portland today. I had an idea. If everyones a golfer, how about we meet up at a golf course? If our meeting is going to be small, lets say less than 10, we could probably fit in a couple of foursomes out. comments?
Hello to the traders I met at the last meeting. It was interesting putting faces with names and discussing different strategies, systems and styles. I can't say that I added anything from the meeting to my daily trading but I would be interested in meeting again. Thanks Gary
Well, that would be an interesting alternative...... I play about four times a year (I used to play that much per week......). As such, I don't know if my golf course ettiquette would be conducive to trading discussions (read: excessive swearing, occasional thrown club....). I'm definately open to the idea though.
I guess it'll have to be at a public course then I haven't played much myself. I'm not a member at a private club anymore either. Heron Lakes, East Moreland, Tukwilla are pretty decent public courses. It may be a bit difficult to coordinate this with others. Maybe this could be a side thing for those that do golf. We'll have to wait to see for responses.
Tell ya what, perhaps we should set up an outing in the near future, even if its just us two. I've not played any course here in Portland since I've moved here five years ago. I did play Pumpkin Ridge once, but that was probably seven years ago. I've always been curious about Heron Lakes; I see it from PIR and always get the urge for a round. Just never get around to it......
PIR??? I've always watched the porsches go around that track while playing at Heron. There are two courses at Heron Lakes. Not sure which ones better... I think the one that's closer to PIR is better? I haven't played either of them since high school. Pumpkins nice. My parents had a membership there a long time ago. My sister would be at one side of the club, and I'd be at the other side, haha. We didn't get along when we were kids. Playing a round definitely sounds like a good idea. Heron Lakes would probably be a good choice. Easy enough for beginners, and challenging enough for the advanced. I better start practicing My weekends are pretty open, so let me know. Maybe there's a couple of others in the area that wouldn't mind teeing it up.
City Grill is very crowded, loud, and small.....The lounge area at the Heathman or Embassy Suites downtown are great places imho. Sundays are great for me.....
