Took a putting lesson this week and for the first time in 20 years I found someone that made sense. I learned to putt pretty unconventional and was based all on feel. The pro told me to do what feels natural and when I did that he said don’t change anything. Last two days I was under 30 putts and shot 75 yesterday on a course that is over 7,400 yards with a slope and rating of 76.8/154. Have to say putting was a strength for a change. 

Where did you get the lesson?

Buddy of mine that is a teaching pro. We did a FaceTime call and he basically told me to do what feels comfortable. Once I did that my stroke was pretty much spot on.

Hmm.  Well, we are the longest Continuous sea going service.  So that makes it more like a E14… 😂

Had to give my dad a little ribbing.  He only made it to E6 before he got out.  He’s a Magellan.. something I hope to never do.  Hahahahaha

Magellan=sailing around the world right? If that’s the case same here, golden shellback as well. That was a fun 11 month deployment 🤦‍♂️

BIG NEWS!

My wife and I are getting paperwork in place to both buy our new home and sell our current home!

We were able to stay in town which is great news because I really didn't want to change my username 😉 

Still a long way to go before closing... but I know it will go fast!  Here's to hoping the rest goes well.  I'll have room to swing... indoors! 

 

Congrats!

My wife and I took a trip to Fletcher Park, a 1.5 mile hiking trail located here in town that I'd never heard about until I was reading on a local Facebook group. They mentioned it had a Japanese garden and my wife was wanting to go to take some photos for background references for art.

It was a beautiful, 83 degree day with enough shade and a nice breeze that made the walk pleasant. We both took some photos and had a fun time getting out in nature. Our next trip will be to the Enterprise South nature park that sits right beside my work. I've been there on a team building exercise, but she hasn't and I think she'll enjoy it.

Looks like a very serene place. I love finding gems like that.  Birds, air, and peace.

It was absolutely calming out there today. Things have been crazy recently and it was nice to have some time out just me and my wife.

I hear you man.  We have been non-stop for seemingly months now.  We need to find some time to get away, even for a hour.  Maybe I’ll make a fire tonight and just enjoy the mosquitoes, and flies…. It just downpoured… that’s my favorite.
