My ol' golfing buddy, Rodney and I played 14 holes of golf today at Dad Miller's.
Fast food lunch after church and before golfing (ugh!).
Dad Miller's Driving range
DB at the start (1pm)
#3 fairway, long wait under the shades!
Our third was "Hank"
DB after 9 holes ... still got energy to play another 9 holes!
Dang, we only finished 14 holes today!
bathroom signage on the 15th hole.
It was fun getting back on the golf course after a three week holiday break. I had a lot good tee shots but awful mid-range iron and chip shots. I even bought a new John Daly 60 degree Wedge (don't really know how to use it yet) yesterday. Well, that's golf for the start of January 2007. A whole new year to look forward to!
The only really negative thing that happened early on the course was the group in front of us had got mad at each other and started to verbally abuse each other. It was kinda of bad scene and one of the non-Asian guy told the Asian guys that he was playing with to F* off and go back to Taiwan, etc ... then he looks my group and made a comment that he'll take on all four of us (like, huh? ... take your racism off the golf course). I guess it's true when people get upset they just start grouping all the "similar" races together and decide that we're all foreigners. It was funny, a four-some of mostly Indians came by afterwards asked who was making all the "get out of America ... you d*mn foreigner" ranting and THEY wanted to kick the NON-Asian guys' asses too! I guess that's how wars erupts. It's Human Nature ....
