The numbers here in Newport, next to Huntington Beach are insane.

Yep, but the weather is so nice. I recall staying in Newport Beach and playing golf at Pelican Hill in the early 90's. I recall looking down at a par 3 green and there were perhaps 10 Mexicans bending over cleaning off the Green - never saw that before.

Local friend was the architect that designed the Pelican Clubhouse. After completion, he retired and became a starter there, one day a month. So we all got free tee times, going off early, before the first fore-some.
