7:57 am

sukee

good, enjoying the cooler weather...from inside :)

7:58 am

aslindy

it is 58 outside, but plenty warm in our house. I did not open windows yesterday because it's hazy from wildfire smoke.

7:59 am

aslindy

my husband is still recovering from bronchitis, so he doesn't really need that much smoke

7:59 am

sukee

It was a bit hazy here yesterday too, probably for the same reason

8:00 am

aslindy

likely so

8:01 am

sukee

lazy morning and then golf around noon

8:59 am

saanichcat

mmmm sounds perfect, have fun, hope you hole in one

9:00 am

welki

for sure, it'll be fun - about the hole in one, not a chance. maybe hole in eight :D

9:03 am

hokie carla

I just read this long article about these 2 young ladies who joined their college team when they needed people and shot like 470+ combined in their first round. Will post a link.

9:04 am

saanichcat

470?!

9:04 am

hokie carla

my bad, it was 434. but here goes. https://tinyurl.com/ufkekyy4

9:06 am

hokie carla

they had to keep playing so their school wouldn't lose the team and the conf wouldn't lose their golf standing

9:15 am

hokie carla

lol

9:16 am

hokie carla

I've only played a few times with mr. homie and I always just picked up if he was finished and I already did 7 or 8 shots. but I can't imagine getting 20+ on multiple holes. I wasn't that bad.

9:18 am

hokie carla

ladies here in our new hood ask if I play and I always say "I have clubs"

9:18 am

welki

i'm getting better, will never be great, but have fun (for the most part). i posted the article on fb - those girls are heroines :D

9:19 am

72 Temple Owl

morning.

9:19 am

hokie carla

mr. homie would tell me I should just take a lesson, but I just don't care that much, just wanted to get out and have fun.

9:19 am

hokie carla

hey TO

9:20 am

BzznBea

carla, are you settling into your new community

9:20 am

welki

i took lessons in my 40s, ten of them. the poor kid that was my pro came up to me at the end and apologized for not doing better, but said that my chest will forever keep me from hitting a decent ball

9:20 am

BzznBea

lmao...poor kid

9:20 am

welki

so i put the clubs away for nearly twenty years and just started up again a few years ago

9:21 am

hokie carla

haha

9:21 am

hokie carla

I reckon so, bea. everyone's still 10-30 years older than us.

9:21 am

welki

oh he was precious - blushing and stammering, 'i don't know how to say this....'

9:22 am

BzznBea

well, now that things have "shifted" with age, it might be easier?

9:22 am

hokie carla

yeah, that's not my golf problem

9:23 am

welki

bea, not easier, but underarmour helps keep things in place

9:23 am

hokie carla

oh, I went to the "farmer's market" in town yesterday. not much produce, mostly hipster type crafts and foods

9:24 am

welki

at a tournament, some guy we were playing with offered me a "tip." he said, 'squish the gals, it'll improve your swing'

9:24 am

72 Temple Owl

yes, many are that way, carla. disappointing

9:24 am

hokie carla

yep

9:25 am

welki

oh! the underarmour. purchased because i kept hooking my underwire with my club! imagine the kerfuffle i caused on the fairway!

9:25 am

rururocks

well keep us abreast of your current golf game then welki

9:25 am

72 Temple Owl

omg

9:25 am

hokie carla

lol, knew that was coming

9:26 am

hokie carla

ruru is such a boob

9:26 am

welki

golfing with me is a titillating experience

9:26 am

BzznBea

we are more rural so we have several vendors that only have produce. more as the season progresses. but still many artisans as well.

9:27 am

welki

owl and i have met, so i'm sure she can envision me on the course

9:27 am

welki

and ru, also!

9:27 am

hokie carla

we do have a lot of roadside produce stands, so I don't really need the market

9:27 am

72 Temple Owl

might even be inspired to take up the game again.

9:28 am

rururocks

i think it's great you do it for the enjoyment of it welki..good on you

9:28 am

welki
