I played golf with the Trenton League yesterday. It was my first round of the year. Actually it was the first time I've swung the club. I played with Pete Duran and Jim Urbanski.
I got off to a crummy start, making triple bogey on the first. I hit the tee ball about 175 yards. I got the second through the trees and close to the green, but I chunked the third, made a poor chip with my fourth, and then three-putted.
Then I sort of got it together and parred five of the remaining eight holes and wound up with a 42. On most the holes I hit very good tee shots.
I got tired on the back. I only parred one hole and ended with 45 for a round of 87. Dick had set my handicap at 16, so I ended up with a net score of even par.
I won closest to the hole on 17 and got five bucks. Jerry beat me out on 6. Our team won four bucks a man for second place low net.
Not bad for not having swung the club since the first week in December.
It was a great day. The flowering trees are spectacular because of the long winter. The apple tree blossoms look like popcorn.
It was fun watching the baby ducks. They scurry around the ponds under the watchful eyes of their parent and almost look like the bugs they're trying to catch.
The picture? Yeah, it's a little old. Actually, maybe about 15 years old.
