At Oakland Beach Golf Course with the cousins.

Ben has spent just about every free moment of his time at the lake working on his golf game. Ben and his cousin entered a junior tournament and both played really well.

Golf

I think my family keeps Oakland Beach and Whispering Pines Golf Courses in business over the summer.

Someone needs to tell Will to keep his eye on the ball.

Dollar Spaghetti Night

After a year's hiatus, Oakland Beach Golf Course brought back one of our favorite lake traditions - Sunday night Dollar Spaghetti Night. Hard to believe, but it is just what it says. A plate of spaghetti with sauce is a dollar. A sausage or a delicious homemade 1/4 pound meatball on top of your pasta is an additional $2; and garlic toast, salad and drinks are extra. The golf course is a short walk from our cottage and we're there every Sunday night of the summer.

New this week, the waitresses had t-shirts that read "The Buck Stops Here - $ Spaghetti is Back"
