D-League

I am so thankful I lived to see this. This has been haunting me since college days.

Hallelujah!
 
Dad used to take me to the fairgrounds for roundy round racing and out to Ohio Valley for the drag racing. We went a lot during the 60's and early 70's. My uncle raced a 60 Ford F100 at OV so we got to hang out in the pits quite a bit. Great environment for a young impressionable youth.



Why don't you find you a day when you can go with me to play at Ben's super nice course in Ashland?



I got lucky and hit a towering shot right at the pin. It was basically coming straight down when it hit. I drove a par 4 today in a scramble but it was about 30 feet from the hole. Double eagle is my next objective.



We started on #6. It's always a shotgun start.

Not sure it's super nice. It's not Valhalla, but it has zoysia tees and fairways, with bent grass greens. So I would say it is nice, probably not super nice. Designed by Willie Parks, Jr. in 1929. He won a British Open. He also designed Olympia Fields, and Sunningdale, in England. Bellefonte is fairly short on the scorecard, but it has some uphill holes and some doglegs, which makes it play considerably longer than the card reads. It is enjoyable and I think you will like it.
 
Good Sunday morning D-League

Drinking a mighty fine cup of coffee this morning. Should get me going soon. Today is "Wear Your Team Jersey Day" at church. UK will be represented.. Our pastor is a football fan and sometimes he has a football in his hand when he preaches and will throw it into the congregation. He says it is to build team spirit but I think he sees someone nodding off and is waking them up. Just kidding about that. But he stands 6'5" and has a pretty strong arm.

Expecting another August day. Temperatures from a current 74 to as high as 90. We will have scattered showers in the area and it depends on which side of the road you are on if it gets you. Trust all have a great day
 
Good morning! Sitting here drinking my coffee and catching up on the news of the world.

I should mow my grass today but I'll wait until tomorrow when my wife is at work. I'll probably have an inside day today.

"united we stand, divided we fall" - this country needs to heed these wise words!
 
Good morning D from the Berg. Beautiful day GOD has made here! Y congrats on your hole in one! Closest I ever came was hitting the flag bounced away didn't drop straight down!

Prayers to all that need them. I have got two close friends, one they have given a couple weeks and my neighbor 1 to 3 months, just sad in the cord house right now. Getting ready to head to church in a few, ya'll have a great day!
 
We need rain, too. Only a trace last month. Grass turning mighty brown.
I checked the U.S. drought monitor and Jefferson county is listed as "abnormally dry" or a D0 level drought. Every time the weather guys predict some rain we get squat. This Tuesday is our only real chance for the next few weeks unless something changes.
 
Spaghetti and cheezy garlic bread for lunch. Guess what's for dinner?

Had my name on the marker for longest drive yesterday on #17. GPS had it at 282 yards. The guy that went to get the prize was a hoss and at least 30 years younger than I am. Prize was a Weber grill. Wouldn't have really come in handy at my house. Never understood why they would give away a driver for the long drive or a putter for the longest putt. If you win either you've got good equipment.
