Nice.
Makes every shot special.

Played a scramble for a good cause today at the Tuskegee Institute for golf.
Only had 18 putts on the green. (They made us keep track but there twasn’t a prize).
Shot 60, tied for 4th -11. Coulda been contenders as they paid 3 places. (-12 was second place).
Fun day with some great folks.

Played 9 with a couple other walkers as no carts allowed due to the 2 day deluge.
The disappearing creek on the course couldn’t handle it. Might be no carts tomorrow too.
Won 4$ by parring the 4 of the last 5 holes after 4 bogeys. Only played 9 as we were all soaked from sweat.
Beer afterwards was tasty.
Ya could whitewater kayak 9-mile creek today if ya had a helmet, some pads and lacked sense.

Was going to play , but the Queen was in need of a grocery run substitute since she is hobbling about from a minor surgery on her foot requiring 3 stiches ..

77 from the white’s and won a buck for least putts.
Didn’t collect as he brought 2 peppers, 2 tomatoes and a cuke from his garden for me.
The only birdies our group made were 2 chip-ins from well off the green.
Sometimes golf throws ya a bone.

40-41 no birds.
Putts came down to the last hole.
1 putted from the fringe on 18 to save losing a buck.
Thank you Jesus.
Played the wettest and short 3 holes (10-12) 5 over.
Other than that no problems.

Took glasses off after the shitty start on the backside yesterday due to fog coming out of me.
Should’ve parred in but missed an easy uphill 5 footer on 17.
Maybe I can put stuff on my glasses folks use on their ski goggles to prevent fog.

When it’s hot and humid is the only time the fog rolls in.
