I'm fine with this crazy new place. I'm thinking maybe a bit later in the afternoon?

Morgan Freeman is coming?
So mini-golf wise, there are a few additional options for places to go. I realized that the Vermonster is somewhat far away, and I'm not sure if anyone minds that. So here are some other places in basically no particular order; feel free to find and suggest others/comment on these.
- original ones -
1. Route One Golf
http://www.theorangedinosaur.com
10.5mi - 21mins
(though somewhere new would be my preference)
2. Kimball Farm aka Vermonster
http://www.kimballfarm.com
42.7mi – 51mins
(maybe ~30 miles with alternate routes, but still >51mins according to google)
- additional ones that are a little closer -
3. Golf Country Easton
http://golfcountry.org/information_easton.htm
30.7mi – 40mins
4. Golf Country Middleton
http://golfcountry.org/information_middleton.htm
19.9mi - 34mins
(this one has two 18 hole courses)
5. Golf Country Saugus
http://golfcountry.org/information_saugus.htm
10.5mi - 19mins
6. Paradise mini golf
http://www.paradiseminigolf.com/
19.1mi – 33mins
7. McGolf's Miniature Golf Course
http://www.mcgolfonline.com/mini_golf/index.php
9.9mi – 27mins
... probably many more.
Other suggestions? Thoughts about these? #3 is far and probably no more exciting than the closer one, and #7 doesn't sound overwhelmingly exciting. Maybe #4? Two courses are better than one, right? #6 sounds good, but ppl on Yelp recommended wearing bug spray if you go at night... :/ |

If you're going to go, you might as well go all the way. |

That does seem like an important question. I don't think anyone has chosen a time yet. It seems like you could either show up at SH at some point TBD, or be picked up via car on the way to the golf place. I'll pester Vernon about it later -- he's coming over in a while. |

Unless anyone objects, we're going to the crazy new infinitely far away place. (kimball farm).
It seems like it would be good to get to there at maybe 5-6. How do you feel about being picked up on the way? Do you want to post or email me your address so I can get directions to you then to the place? |

149 strathmore brighton seems to get the job done on google. And getting there closer to 5 is better than 6 I would imagine, so that we have options in terms of playing both courses or getting dinner or whatever. |
