I burn if the sun is out and I’m outside.  I got a few sun hoodies to help curb it, I often get asked why I’m wearing long sleeves when it is 80° outside, and pants a lot of times.  If you’re looking for something Marsh Wear has some cool stuff to provide some sun protection.

I need to start wearing these my family has a bad history of skin cancer

Get them ordered.  Plenty of different brands to choose from.  Super comfy, and tolerable in the heat. 
 

Super glad I’m moving to sunny Oregon/Washington.  😂😂

I had my annual checkup with the dermatologist, long time psoriasis sufferer. He asked about what I did for sun protection. I replied that I’m a regular user of sun screen. He recommended long sleeves and long pants. I decided to meet halfway and ordered arm protection sleeves. A golf instructor I follow on Instagram featured sleeves from Storyigolf. So I ordered a set. $19.99 and $3.86 for shipping. I’ve also been noticing more golfers where I play wearing arm protection as well under their polos. It’s certainly worth a try.

You also might try polos that have uv protection - there are a bunch of companies (both golf and non golf oriented) that offer short and long sleeve polos. My wife has to wear long sleeves and long pants because of her melanoma issues and she can generally find both in golf stores. 

EDIT: Note the benefit of these polos is that they're generally 50+ protection and you don't have to keep slathering the sun screen on .

Thanks, that’s indeed a good option for future purchases. 👍🏼 For the moment I’m just looking to augment my current supply of polos.

19 showings since friday… not a single offer.  Biggest question we get is, “could it flood?” Hmmm… looking at waterfront property…
 

Well, since it’s like 50’ from the Chesapeake Bay, you tell me……. 🤦🏼‍♂️ 

You would think they would understand that risk when they went to look at a waterfront property

Uh, yeah.  It was the first thing I thought of buying the place.  It’s like 18” above sea level… not much room for error… but I talked with the neighbors, and the last time it really flooded was back before I was even born.  One of the hurricanes did some wind damage, but no flooding.

Today’s round included a turtle rescue. I found this little guy on the 3rd green and moved him pond adjacent.

Must be breeding season or egg laying time or something. I had two turtles on my course on Sunday and I haven't seen any in the past 16 years there. I couldn't move the ones I saw as they were as big as a a seat cushion. Also snapping turtles. I give them a wide birth. Heck they didn't get that big without them knowing where they were going!

I added a topic in Courses and hope it’s not somewhere else on the forum as I couldn’t find it. “Introduce Your “Home” Course”. I thought it would be fun to see where our fellow spies call “home”.

Kids baseball game tonight, I came in to be the closer… my son is up to bat. So I threw him the heat… little punk hit a line drive right at my forehead… but alas, I have cat like reflexes, so I put up my non gloved hand because that is the smart thing to do… probably the worst mistake I’ve made since turning 39 on the 12th.  Hahaha

Putting an offer in on a house in Oregon… it’s perfect, right by ALL of the golf courses.

I could use some luck, prayers, whatever it takes to make this work… probably money now that I think of it… that part is covered, but I still need the luck and prayers.  

The best of luck to you... which golf courses??
