I can now picture you and your wife out on your front patio.  Thanks for the invite over last January. 

So far, the smoke from fires here in the west haven't been too bad, but it's early in the season.  

Yes, that's our morning perch for coffee. Hope you and Martha can visit again next winter.

Hopefully it will be a low incident season.  When I was with the VFD in MT, we got BLM training each year focused on wildfires.  I use to think "oh great, it was a heavy snow and wet spring cycle, so the fire threat should be low".  Nope.  It just grows more fuel and, if summers drying cycle is too fast and t-storms hit at the wrong times, it can be worse.

It is unusual thatthe midwest and east coast get hit so hard.  But then, I don't think wildfires in Canada typically are that bad, that far into the eastern provinces.

Won't make it this winter.  We are headed back to Palm Springs in February.

I heard someplace that while eastern Canada had some lightning strikes, many of the first started from campsites.

Morning Spies. Our youngest is home from daycare again with strep. Pretty sure she's feeling better. She's already convinced me she needed ice cream for breakfast because "My throat hurts, I'm so sick..." 

I'm in trouble when she starts asking for things that are expensive. 

They learn so quickly!!

Morning MGS, and TGIF. I slept 3 hours, woke up with a headache, went back to sleep for 7 hours and now I feel great. Must have needed the rest.

It's great to see so much activity on the forum. I had so many pages to catch up on this thread!

GM Y'all- I hope everyone is havin a great day and hopefully things will get less hazy for those affected by the Canuck smoke. Things have been crazy at work lately- end of Fiscal year and departments are busy trying to justify their budgets (to be read: spending like crazy). I'm seeing a new putter in the bag coming soon. Then I'm sure I'll be able to figure out if it's the archer or the arrow😆. According to the testing I did- the new one is MUCH more accurate. Anyways, hope that golf involved in your day and know that I'm  jealous(although I might get a range session in tonight ahead of my round tomorrow). Nothin but F&Gs and NO 3-putts.

thanks for asking, it was my best finish, I think tied 22 until this year when I tied 17th in red deer... it was such a good experience.

Congrats for back then and for Red Deer! If I make the team and you swing by, could you caddy for me! 🤣

Good morning all! I am sitting at work this Saturday morning as I volunteered to come in to help finish today. Finish Saturdays are a lot more relaxed than production days, so it's not that bad. Not to mention we have a three day weekend coming up next weekend.

I hope those of you that are on the Pinehurst trip have safe travels and a wonderful time. I hate that I couldn't make it this year, but sometimes life gets in the way. I hope y'all hit them well and enjoy each other's company. 

I hope everyone else has a great start to your weekend!

Good morning Spies,

Ready to hit start on cup number 2. Air quality got into the green yesterday but jumped back into the yellow this morning. My wife is competing in an Aqua Bike race this morning. Swimming and biking are her “golf”. Her equipment spends are around her bikes. 
 

Wishing all a great day!

Good morning all, a little excited and a little anxious this morning, my 1st round with my new Tacomo 301MB's.

Ride 'em hard, no oats at the turn, and never put 'em away wet.

We made it to the weekend, everyone. Exciting times at MGS, looking forward to following the posts from Pinehurst.

I have a 2:08pm tee time at Colonial Terrace for 9 holes. My goal is no lost balls and no 3 putts.
