Good morning on a crisp Wednesday from WNY, benign kind of winter morning missing 80% of the snow that fell and what remains is ice = clean paws with the low rider patrol.  Coffee is good and hot, already over an hour into the workday 💻 so here we go! ☕

Now @Rickp you can't put FM's out where a Veteran can see it without getting a laugh 😆 [Field Manual of course 😇]

Maybe not…

gm everyone (is that how it's done @cksurfdude?) 😁  A beautiful sunny but chilly morning today.  My wife is about to head out to play in her Wednesday ladies league group.  I'm sitting here drinking my 2nd cup of coffee trying to decide if I want to brave the cold and walk another 9 holes for the 3rd day in a row. I will at least go to the club for some short game practice and chat with the pro.  

Today is our first day that GHIN is active.  Mine hasn't been active for a couple of years (been keeping track of it myself), but I thought I would renew this year (ulterior motive).  Apparently I can't renew online unless I join our Men's Club which I won't do.  I think I can do it at the club.

We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.”

This morning's crazy driver near disaster...

I'm following a large movers truck through an intersection .. and on the other side, on "our" same side, of the intersection is a car waiting to pull out from a current gas station .. left, apparently, across our travel lane...

..well as the truck has crossed the intersection and is practically crossing that car .. yep .. *then* they decide to pull out....

But that's not the end of it...

..there was already a line of cars in the other lane waiting to make their left turn, so this person really had nowhere to go yet...

..truck hits the brakes and sounds the horn .. driver lurches forward .. and only avoided hitting a large white shiny Range Rover - ie hard not to see! - as the Range Rover driver pulled a quick evasive maneuver...

I woke up this morning to a tornado warning text from work. I guess they had one spotted in the area and had the third shift workers find shelter. The good thing is, the first text I saw was an all clear so everything is fine. 

I looked at the Weather Channel and there was just a warning and not a watch until 6. 

I'm now sitting in my car drinking coffee watching the rain gently fall. 

I hope y'all have a good start to your morning.

Good Thursday morning that feels like a Monday morning but different in above freezing outside, only where snow had piled up on Monday is it remaining otherwise green and dry everywhere - forecast was apparently aggressive to precip.  Still winter storm watch is up for tomorrow and pushed back to evening commute hours.  Coffee is more interesting right now ☕ it is March and one weekend closer to golf ⛳

Missed seeing Jupiter and Venus close together last night when they were supposed to be close enough to "kiss" (some creative imagination thing I doubt came from the scientific astronomy world)

This morning is cloudy with wind 18-34mph so no golf today.  Sure, I'll have another cup of coffee!

Yesterday morning was not pretty!!  After deciding to walk 9 holes again because the sun was out, I left my house to run some errands before I driving to the course.  Arrived at the course... opened the trunk... no clubs!!!  I forgot they were home in my hitting bay. 🤦‍♂️  Finally got to the course about 10:30 and hit a few balls and some putts.  As I was walking off the putting green, I saw a twosome in a cart heading down the #1 fairway... rats!  The pro shop said I could go after that twosome at 11:05; nobody else was on the tee.  So, I teed up and hit my ball thinking I would probably catch them.   A single in a cart rolled up for the 11:05 tee time; OK.  He said the was a golf newbie 🤦‍♂️; then a couple in a cart rolled up, also 11:05 tee time.  The newbie popped the ball up to the right about 50y; the guy block his shot waaay right.  It took us 20 minutes to play a 310y par 4.  Took another 20 minutes to play the 270y par 4 #2.  All this standing around with the sun going behind clouds and wind picking up, I was getting cold.  The final straw was while we were putting out on #2, a ball from the #2 tee landed on the green and rolled off the back.  My car is about a 7i from the green, so I decided that it wasn't my day to play golf.  Wished everyone well and left.

"Good" morning fellow MGS'ers! Our three year old has spent the week in what seems to be a sleep regression where he wakes up 3-4 times a night, yells "DAAAAAAADDDDYYYYY" at the top of his lungs, and then requests that I sit in the room until he falls asleep. It is safe to say I am lacking in sleep and feel like I am reliving the newborn stage again 🤪. Relying heavily on caffeine today!

I should add that he recently discovered he can climb out of his crib, and his room is in the lower level, so where I used to just be able to let him be in there until he fell asleep, he's now an escape artist and tries to climb up the stairs in the middle of the night, half asleep. Transition to big boy bed is coming soon.

Good morning from balmy (3 degrees Celsius) Sooke. The weather has been inclimate and spotty in southern Vancouver Island the past week or so. No snow in Sooke however Saanich Penninsula (about 1 hour east) has 6 inches or so. My home course is kindof in between, I think the front 9 will be open today for play. Going to be an indoor day for me…

I'm bored

The weather has been consistently... not nice.  Looking out the window at the sun makes me want to head to the course, but I know it's chilly and the 19-36mph winds just make me miserable.  Another morning of practice in my hitting bay after exercises, then watch the API tournament.

Tomorrow is looking a lot better for play; 45-50º with only a slight breeze.
