A Golf Course Flag in Florida that made me Stop to Appreciate

It's February which means a vacation to warm weather to get some of the rust off the golf clubs and get some heat in the body.

At one of the resort courses I played last week, I stopped to appreciate the flag on a fence and also the work that it took to create.

Someone used a lot of time, and golf balls to create the flag and their imagination was appreciated by this person as I passed by.

Right down to painting stars on the balls as well.

Hi Ed, This looks like someone in Florida was being very creative and emotionally attached to golf balls.
