One week from today and Shorty and I leave for Kiawah Island, SC. Really excited....it is rated the #2 golf resort in the country by Travel and Leisure...should be an awesome trip.
Shorty has been obsessing about his golf game. It's no surprise...its summer time...he does it every year. Changing his swing, reading a new book (this time it is Ben Hogan) and taking a lesson here and there.
A few weeks ago, he was "practicing" his new swing on our back patio. He had the video camera set up...so he could critique himself afterwards.
I was inside doing what I always am doing (laundry) and I heard a pretty loud crash. Apparently he had smacked the outdoor ceiling fan with his 8 iron in his back swing and cracked a fan blade off....thank God he didn't hurt himself...it was pretty funny at the time.
Golf is a great game...it really is...it is nice that we can do something together (sometimes) ;) Shorty is a pretty good golfer...I can keep up with him...but, he always beats me. I DID infact beat him on 9 holes (by 2 strokes) about 2 months ago. He wasn't too thrilled...and the fact that I told everyone 100 times wasn't so good either. ;) But, I can't officially say I beat him...it was only 9 holes. 18 holes is what counts.
When we played last week...he took the video camera....I filmed Shorty and his new swing. He filmed me too...I came as close as I have ever come to a hole in one. And, I got it on film!
If I am feeling extra specially dorky...maybe I might put it on here.
We are playing golf 3 days. One course "The Ocean Course" requires you to walk and have a caddy. Never had a walking caddy before...totally excited. MAYBE I might beat Shorty.
Yeah right...in my dreams.
