Golfer Watching - Our Favorite Entertainment



One of Larry's wishes, when we were looking for a house to buy, was that it would be on a golf course and we were pleased to find one that met the requirment - along with 15 more requirments on the list. The house is not only on a golf course but the 18th tee is just on the other side of the 2' wall that surrounds our back yard. We are about 30-35 feet from the golfers when we are setting in our chairs on the patio. People pay for entertainment that is not nearly as good as the entertainment we have while watching the golfers that play through. Some are good and some are really, really, really bad. They are all sizes and shapes. There are business people and some who look like they came straight from Woodstock. Some are young and some are old, not just mature but old and can barely walk. One buy who has had many, many birthdays drives the cart up on the tee so he minimizes how far he has to walk. Then there are the very spry senior citizens who walk the course and carry their clubs. We have some interesting conversations with some and others pretend they don't see us. For a fun Sunday afternoon, get a cool drink, sunglasses, newspaper and retire to the patio for a fun, entertaining afternoon. Hard to beat and it's free!
