Going Golfing

So i figured out how to get my pictures off dad's camera.







refer to previous post as to what we were doing.

Nate seems to always have friday afternoon's off, so after saying "screw off homework", I joined him for a round of 9 hole golf. Let it be said that this was my very first time golfing an actual hole. We have gone and hit at the range a few times but needless to say, it is a bit different on the actual course, where you are confined to a particular hole and hitting a ball incorrectly will leave you at the mercy of having to yell for others to watch their heads. (I would have inserted the word "FORE" at this time but i am not sure how it is spelled. "FOUR" "FORE" "FOR" i just don't know which one is the correct usage AAHHHHH!!!)

anyway, we made it to our 2:15 tee time. luckily we were able to go by ourselves since i was worried i would slow other people who actually knew what they were doing. surprisingly, i did quite well the first 2 holes. I was only +1 on the first par 3 and then i made par on the second hole, par 4. after that i think my beginner's luck wore off and i have erased said scores from my memory. Nate ended up beating me soundly.

oh well. i wasn't supposed to win anyway. it was my first time. but ill be back. ill try and get out there once a week or so.

now i just need to get some snazzy golf pants.

Nate already posted about our gun experience and he posted the only picture we took that afternoon. so refer to his post.

Great pictures,Dave! Looks and sounds like you had a great time with J and S. Be patient with the golfing.You will get the hang of it with a bit more practice. Then you can teach dad and me! With Nate off on fridays and no classes for you it sounds like you should have a standing date for a round of golf.

We miss you, Bub!

Love you!
Mom

Snazzy golf pants? I MUST see said pants immediately after you buy them. Preferably on your body and not just, you know, laying on the floor in a crumpled pile. Cracking up over here!

I love that you're blogging more regularly. It's so fun to read what you're up to! Love you!
