One of the all time greats

If all goes according to plan (fingers crossed and wood knocked on) by the end of this week the 93 year old, member owned golf course that I have been president of for the last 2 and a half years will be sold to a local person who will keep it a golf course. The new owner has a sports camp up the road and the course will enable him to increase his golf program and allow the course to remain a community asset. There have been many sleepless nights and heartburn inducing days as we’ve tried everything to keep it running and I know my already sketchy game has suffered because of the stress of running the place has put me under. The deal is scheduled to close Thursday and the new owner wants to open for play Saturday. We really did not expect to open for play this season so getting it ready for play is going to require a major push this week. For the first time in a while, I see a light at the end of the long, dark tunnel we’ve been traveling through. Maybe I can really begin to enjoy golf again.

Ended up with 5”

Where did you end up?

Close to 3”. Still snowing

Light snow. 33F. Starting to coat the deck rails

Nice. Good round. I always seem to play decently the first couple of times out. I figure I forget a lot of bad habits over the winter. They always come back though.

Reminder of simpler times

I still get a kick out the Ginx blurry cell phone pics references. As soon as I opened this thread and saw these pics it was the first thing I thought of.

As in we will actually get accumulating snow and that will be a disappointment?

It's the trend I am looking for

You evil bastard.

Don't worry, he'll find some way to spin it that he did.

If you promise, then I'm holding you to it. What are you offering of it doesn't happen?

Or Manuary

Happened early here. Down to 47°

It was beautiful when I got up at 6:45. Opened the windows and doors. Closed stuff down by 10:30 or so and the clouds moved in and the temp dropped. What a tease this weekend was

R.I.P. Nate

Noticed some willows budding down low and some other small bushes.

Sounds like clouds and rain all the time where he is.

The wind has been pretty stout. I don’t live in a particularly wind prone but I looked out once and my mailbox was shaking.

I didn’t know Whiz was
