Time Flies

It seems like only yesterday that I wrote my last post.  I don't know where the time goes, but I seem to have been busy without realizing it. 

The Nurse and I spent as very pleasant evening Friday on the patio with friends. Drinks, dinner and conversation around the fire pit to wrap the evening up.  It couldn't have been any nicer.  We have the best setting in the area.

Saturday was another day of tense competition on the links.  Dr. AH and I were getting beat like a cheap drum after nine holes.  I truly thought the pendulum had swung the other way.  We turned it around on the inward nine and managed to eek out a small win and finish on the positive side of the ledger.  The SD and TGWH were in shock, and were last seen mumbling incoherently on the walk to their cars.

Sunday we teed it up with the Gilhooley's for a casual round.  The course was finally starting to dry out.  Still soft and slow on the greens, but much better than Saturday.  This week we should be back to normal.  The temperatures are finally summer-like.  The downside is the sudden change has brought out the dollar spot on the fairways.  It is virtually impossible to stop this attack on the grass.  Hopefully Eric has able to spray early enough to keep it from spreading. 

Worked on the TDGA Course Rating Comm. yesterday at Delphos CC.  Nice small town course where the members seem to take great pride in what they have.  Over the years they have had a number of improvement projects which the members have made using an event like our Founder's Tournament.  They have a very unique hole-in-one monument (done from a dead tree).

Get the cool clothes out.
