Where in Rockwall County? I am off Zion and 30 on the west side of Lake Ray Hubbard, and I too plan on taking the course in a few weeks. Would like to hear where you plan on taking it!

Being the smallest county in Texas, it could be easy to miss!Diode wrote: Just where is Rockwall? Or have I asked this before.... dang I am getting old
But then, that would mean that you probably also missed that it is (now 2nd I believe) the fastest growing county in the Nation. Eek.
25 miles from Downtown Dallas, due East.
On the map you'll see a lake, Ray Hubbard. we are between that and Greenville to our East.
To me, its the best. Big city shopping, small town feeling. Lake is < 1 mile, and Bass Pro Shop is opening in November < 1.5 miles from the house.
Makes me happier than a gopher in soft dirt.
