Here we are, Memorial Day of 2021

 TERRY

Terry has read the paper this morning and is now watching Saturday TV which is always fun on a Saturday.  I would say she is doing well and feeling about the same.  We have not heard from the doctor's office that is supposed to call to give her an appointment so I will need to call them on Monday.

It was a busy day for me yesterday and I was away from home much of the day.  There was tennis from 9:00-10:30 and then golf from 11:30-5:00.  Well the golf was actually not that long.  It was a 20 minute drive to the course and we arrived 45 minutes before our tee time.  After hitting on the range for about 20 minutes we got a head start on our tee time of 12:40 as we stood on #1 about 12:15.  It was one of the most unusual golf outings I had ever had as there was nobody ahead of us and nobody behind us.  The three of us finished 18 holes in about 3 1/2 hours.  I would say the course was medium in difficulty and maybe the same in length.  There was one par 3 of just over 200 yards and the longest par 5 was about 450 yards.  Very little water but MANY sand traps and trees although the fairways were pretty wide.  That is the third time I have golfed this season and before that my golfing days numbered ONE in the last many many years.  I guess I was happy with a score of 103 but I faulted down the last three holes!  As we walked off the green at 18 Karl asked if I was open to stop in the cafe so we did that.  As we enjoyed a drink and snacks they brought around several hot snacks at no charge!  That was nice.  I arrived home shortly after 5:00 to find Terry doing fine.  I guess we will do one more golf outing next week and then both Karl and Scott head north for the summer.  I kind of think my golfing days are then over for a while!

Terry and I will go it alone for the next THREE days as I told Sonia she did not need to come on Monday as the cost is time and half on holidays.  I did NOT order any meals to be delivered next week.  It seems that we get too much food and can not eat all of it.  Well, another reason is IF I do not slim down to some degree I may be able to float in the pool just by being in it.  So we will see what the next week brings.  

We have nothing planned for the holiday weekend.  Maybe I will fire up the grill but not sure what to put on it!


That is the club we played at and the lounge we were in for a while after golf.  These golf courses here are a bit different than what Dave and I used to play on in Fargo in the 60s!

As I write Terry would like me to be with her for a while so I may add some later.
