Twilight golfing at Anahiem Dad Millers GC

Whoa, back on the golf course! I do miss it! Those visits to the driving range just don't cut it. We had a group of six yesterday. It was so fun! I got to use both my new 3wood and 5wood alot (the first six holes were all Par 4's with #8 being 510 yards long)!

Unfortunately, daylight was ending sooner and sooner. It was gettting pretty dark around 6:45 pm. I shot a 58 w/ 23 putt and was able to par'd the last hole after my tee shot landed on the green at about 176 yards (w/ my 5 wood) in near darkness.

I was alittle upset after we finished when I discovered I dropped my driver head cover on the course but the guys in the golf cart behind us had picked it up and returned it to me after I asked them. Rodney gave me an extra one that he had found too.


Yummy pizza at Mamma C's

Some of us had dinner at Mama Cozza's afterwards. It was a good outing!
