Castle Keep тАФ Guest Residence
тАЬAre you coming?тАЭ Thaxton called irritably.

Dalton had stopped to chat with a servant and another guest. He turned his head. тАЬHold your horses.тАЭ

тАЬHavenтАЩt got all day.тАЭ

Dalton said goodbye and hefted his clubs. He came down the corridor toward Thaxton.

тАЬSince when are you in a hurry to play golf?тАЭ

тАЬSorry, hate to stand about while somebody dawdles.тАЭ

тАЬYou are one irascible bloke.тАЭ

тАЬI said I was sorry,тАЭ Thaxton said.

тАЬI have to wheedle and cajole to get you to play golf and now you canтАЩt wait.тАЭ

тАЬYou said you wanted to do nine holes before lunch, and IтАЩm already hungry.тАЭ

тАЬWhy didnтАЩt you fill up at breakfast?тАЭ

тАЬCanтАЩt eat a big breakfast usually. StomachтАЩs upset when I get up. Incipient ulcer. Been meaning to тАФ
hello, whatтАЩs this?тАЭ

Thaxton had stopped in front of the archway that led to the world of the golf course.

тАЬNow, what the bloody hell is going on?тАЭ

Dalton rubbed his chin. тАЬLooks different, doesnтАЩt it?тАЭ

тАЬWell, yes. There used to be trees, then the clubhouse on the left, then the first tee.тАЭ

What they saw was a tee and a long beautiful fairway that doglegged to the right. The surroundings were
familiar enough тАФ dense forest.

тАЬThey must have cleared some brush,тАЭ Thaxton said.
