One day a man decided to retire...


He booked a Caribbean cruise and proceeded to have the time of his life, until the ship sank. 


He found himself on an island, alone, no supplies, nothing, only bananas and coconuts. 


After about four months, he is lying on the beach one day when the most gorgeous woman he has ever seen rows up to the shore. 


In disbelief, he asks, "Where did you come from? How did you get here?"


She replies, "I rowed over from the other side of the island where I landed when my cruise ship sank."


"Amazing," he notes. "You were lucky to have a row boat wash up with you."


"Oh, this?" explains the woman. "I made the boat out of raw material I found on the island.  The oars were whittled from gum tree branches.  I wove the bottom from palm tree branches, and the sides
and stern came from a Eucalyptus tree."


"But, where did you get the tools?"


"Oh, that was no problem," replied the woman.  "On the south side of the island, a very unusual stratum of alluvial rock is exposed.  I found if I fired it to a certain temperature in my kiln, it melted into
ductile iron I used to make tools and used the tools to make the hardware."


The guy is stunned.


"Let's row over to my place," she says.


 So, after a short row, she docks the boat at a small wharf.  As the man looks to shore, he nearly falls off the boat.  Before him is a long stone walk leading to a cabin and tree house.
 
While the woman ties up the rowboat with an expertly woven hemp rope, the man can only stare, dumb struck.  As they walk into the house, she says casually, "It's not much, but I call it home.  Sit down, please."


"Would you like a drink?"


"No! No thank you," the man blurts out, still dazed.  "I can't take another drop of coconut juice."


"It's not coconut juice," winks the woman.  "I have a still.  How would you like a Tropical Spritz?"


Trying to hide his continued amazement, the man accepts, and they sit down on her couch to talk.  After they exchange their individual survival stories, the woman announces, "I'm going to slip into 
something more comfortable.  Would you like to take a shower and shave?  There's a razor in the bathroom cabinet upstairs.."


No longer questioning anything, the man goes upstairs to the bathroom.  In the cabinet is a razormade from a piece of tortoise bone.  Two shells honed to a hollow ground edge are fastened to its end inside a swivel mechanism.


"This woman is amazing," he muses. "What's next?"


When he returns, she greets him wearing nothing but some small flowers on tiny vines, each strategically positioned, she smelled faintly of gardenias.


She beckons for him to sit down next to her.


"Tell me," she begins suggestively, moving closer to him, "We've both been out here for many months.  You must have been lonely.  When was the last time you played around?  She stares into his eyes ...


He can't believe what he's hearing.  "You mean..." he swallows excitedly as tears start to form in his eyes,


 "You've built a golf course?"
