golf in the heat

today was spent at the golf course- prince william golf club actually. played with a bunch of the usual thursday guys minus a few who either had to clean up storm mess or probably lost power. the fact that it was cart path only didn't help and it was plenty warm out there also. but i surprised myself and got around ok.

my usual problem club, the driver, wasn't too bad today actually despite a hook or two but i chipped very well and got up and down 6 of 12 times with 6 greens in regulation. had 28 putts thanks to good chipping and with a little better putting i could easily have had 23-24 putts. the greens were slower than normal due to the rain but the greens were in nice shape. always liked the layout of this course and they have obviously been putting some money into it and it is in ice shape and they also have new carts.

the course was 53 miles away from my house so the ride out there and back after 4.5 hours pf playing and time for an ice cream after took much of the day. came home to work on the garden some and the basement some and did two loads of laundry and threw away some more stuff. then rode the bike for 20 miles and that brought me to right now, just about midnight. track work tomorrow i hope and the plumber coming to fix the sink. should be a really hot day and they are calling for mid-high 90's for the entire next week. philly on saturday and sunday. hope my mom's a-c is working.
