A Golf Milestone!

Strokin' it!

One of my retirement goals was to break out of my perpetual bad golfing posture and break 100. 

I got close last month with a 104 on our 6023 yard Kahiti course here in the village.  Then I got in a rut posting 4 116 scores in a row. 

My play has been improving for several months with a lot of practice but one day the long game is good, the next  time the short is great then putting is good.  Finally, all 3 were acceptable and while I am certainly not ready for the tour, my 5th round of the week was a winner.

Today at Kahiti, playing with Mary and Bill and Phyllis Adams, I finally not only hit my sub 100 goal, I shattered it with an unprecedented 92!  This included a par on the monster 586 yard 9th hole.  I have killed my handicap but it is worth it.

Colorado visit



Richard & Trish

 While in Aurora, CO for Zack's graduation, we got to enjoy some quality time with the Rocky Mountain crew.  It is always great seeing how much the children have grown and catching up on all their lives.  (Not to mention giving and receiving lots of hugs.)

When we last visited, it was as a part of Road Trip 2 last October and all we did was drop off a trailer full of goods and hit the road to get our of their way.  Now they have had 6 months to get their lives back together after the move and the whole crew seems to be thriving in the thin Colorado air.

Tristan

Tristan is looking more grown up every time we see him - smart, sensitive, handsome - we're not prejudiced at all.

Tia

Tia is still in love with everything Ferret and judging from the constant stream of neighborhood girls, she has still never met a stranger.
