Golf at the Indianapolis 500

It’s called the Brickyard, and it’s super cool. You start out somewhere outside the race track, and in the middle, several holes are right inside the center of the track. It’s a popular place, and it was busy that day.
The course is really nice. Lush grass, well tended. The carts had GPS. It’s a tough [...]

Gone Golfing

I’m going to be gone this weekend.
Golfing. It’s supposed to be restful.
I stink at golf. I am prepared to be most frustrated.
Oh, well. Someone has to be in the bunker…

It’s True What They Say About Golf

There’s this adage implying that a bad day at the golf course is better than a good day at work.
Yesterday was one of those days.
Actually, since there are rarely any good days at work, a bad day anywhere else doing anything else would be better than working.

When Golf Becomes a Day at the Beach

This weekend, my husband and I decided to treat ourselves to a couple of games of golf. After all, we had the holiday (Monday) off, and completed all of our outside chores to some satisfaction. The nice thing about having a yard is that eventually you get to enjoy it. I think our target date [...]

I thought that was unusual, because I have considered my own parents pretty [...]

Land of One Thousand Golf Balls

By now, some of you know that I golf, albeit not very seriously. If you knew me, if you saw my somewhat tiny frame, my thin arms and skinny bow-legs, you would know that I’m as far away from being an athlete as the 800 pound man. However, there is more to golf than trying [...]

Misadventures on the Golf Course Part I

I took up golf about ten years ago. It was about the time that my husband took it up, because I insisted my son take it up. My son was about ten at the time and has never been athletically inclined. He’s now approaching 21 and still not athletically inclined, but he can bang a [...]

Snow Golf and Speaking of Tiger

MIB made a comment on one of my posts regarding playing golf in the snow. By what I wrote, he thought that my husband was going to play golf in the snow. In fact, my husband was only going watch golf on TV. Then MIB made the comment that watching golf was rather boring.
That, I [...]
