Scratch Game In January

I must say, living in Florida does have some distinct advantages. We have the Atlantic Ocean not more than 15 minutes away. It's generally sunny most of the year. The winter is very mild. Oh yeah, and you can golf in January, which is exactly what I did yesterday.

Meg and I played in a best ball scramble for a friends birthday. This is the fifth year he's done it and the third year I've played. Our foursome ended up even after 18 holes which was surprising considering none of us had touched a golf club in over 3 months. I hit some long drives, some decent iron shots and even made a couple of clutch puts. Not bad. In addition to the golfing there were drinks to be had and golf carts to work out.

Maybe the best scene from the day for me was the 7 cars chasing after one another on 14 with people cart surfing on the tops. This I'm sure is not behavior condoned by the course, but evidently no one saw it. They did however see the broken 100 yard marker on sixteen but I won't incriminate anyone here. Blogs are public domain.

Today will bring the dog park, Bold City for a growler and a super bowl party where the theme is fried food. I have no preference on the game, but I know the Arizona Cardinals were an underdog all season, so I think I'm rooting for them. As for the food, I don't know what we're taking yet. I'm sure I'll google something right after I post this.

GO CARDINALS!
