FORE!!!

What was I thinking? Up at 6 am on a holiday?? On the course at 8? So much dew in the rising sun who could see the ball? 4th time playing.First 18 holes (only played the first 9 and drove the cart for the final 9) and first golf cart. Good thing we had carts. Good thing that David didn't turn it over on the steep hill going down and skidding in the wet grass. Really good thing. Whew. Rewarded by one or two good putts and maybe 4 or 5 other balls. Next up........lessons.

Ahhhhhhhhh..........

Best weather of the summer! Sunny and breezy with temps in the 70's. Being energized, we tore out the culinary herb bed that has gotten so overgrown. Garlic chives and lemon balm had taken over. Left in a small patch of lemon balm and pulled the chives (though it will take more digging and maybe a shot or two of Round Up). Trimmed up the Greek Oregano and pulled out the parsley. The plastic fence that has surrounded the area for the last few years is no more. What a different sight! This area is slated for David's very own workshop, hopefully next year. All that's left to move is sage, chives and oregano. Easy enough.
