The Good Morning Thread

[sirchunksalot]

Good morning and happy Friday everyone! Had a little issue with the coffee pot kicking off this morning, but finally got it to brew. It looks like it might need replacing soon. 

Other than that, I'm relaxing in the car preparing myself for work. Reading through the forum is always a positive start to my day.

And that's why I have the ss thermal Moccamaster carafe.  Still in good shape after 12 years and I haven't had to pick up glass!

Clear and 28º this morning; this could be the last morning of sub-freezing temps.  Got more outside yard work to do after this cup of coffee.

I’d agree with Kenny. It’s hard to crack a thermal carafe.

Morn, all! Getting my Friday on. There’s a break in the rain/snow today, so I’ll be outside hoping to make some progress on the project today.

GM, coffee, read Sports Page and off to see Bacon Boyz.  Always a treat.

Morning all!

Really mild morning, actually walked the dog in a T-shirt. No real sunrises besides Sunday this week, hopefully an early day at work. Wouldn’t mind trying to hit PGASS later this afternoon…..

Good morning from an ice/snow free WNY in the balmy 40's this Friday early, plenty of rain for the day to wash roadsalt off the vehicles and driveway  and later through tomorrow winds expected to blow Buffalo to Rochester, perfect for my last PGA HOPE session 6 of 6 at Wildwood CC (just getting home will be upwind) 

Coffee is hot and in the mug with 2 more in the thermos, Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone

Awesome! What does she run? After a 3-year hiatus I am back coaching high school this spring. Starts Monday can't wait.

Top of the morning fellas!  Heavy rain coming in today, so no golf here but it's Friday at last and it's March Madness.

Good morning and TGIF spies!

anybody got any rounds planned this weekend? 

[Merlin1313]

Good Mornin Y'all!!!!! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!! IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!!! 

I got my LM numbers for my new 7 iron and they weren't too bad!!!!! I'm really happy with them. There were a few chunks/mishits/whoops but for the most part they're pretty good and right in line with what we were hoping for. I'm still trying to figure some alignment/placement issues out. And I found out that the Chrome Soft X works a LOT better for me

Monin everyone and happy St. Patty's day. No golf for us today but Saturday's couples golf will happen if the rain holds off til late afternoon.

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Good morning, looking forward to the weekend after today and some more melting of snow to get spring here. Should be nice and warm next week and no real snow. Now the road is going to be a mess with the melting but I will take it over more snow. Hope everyone has a great day.

[GolfSpy_KFT]

A little late to the draw this morning! After a nice mild 40s day yesterday, we are back to winter in Wisconsin with hard blowing winds and temps in the teens, but it's at least not snowing! Significant snow melt off from yesterday and I can see fairways and greens again from my windows . Happy St. Patrick's Day, MGS'ers!

She is a jumper but also does the hepthalon.  They classify her as a multi. She does the long jump, triple jump, high jump and 100meter hurdles every meet. This week it is the hepthalon. Today is long jump, javelin, and the 800 meter run.

Nice!  Looks like my dog from the 1970's.  What a pistol!!

Good morning everyone and Happy St. Patrick's Day!  I was up early, had my coffee and vacuumed the house while my wife went to Rotary meeting at 6:30.  She's half-Irish and all mouth!!  She tells me that back in the 60's her dad, who always wore a suit, came downstairs wearing a black arm band.  Her mom asked who died, and he apparently said "It's St. Patrick's Day."  He slept in on the couch that night.

She is an absolute goof and Ivan love her. She is just such a good pup for the baby. They truly are a unique breed!

Multi event athletes are amazing.

GM, happy Saturday!  Easy day, coffee cereal, little fruit then head to the gym early.  Supposed to finally rain later so have a few inside projects lined up.   
Have great day guys.

[Triple_Putt]

Morning everyone, more work for me today. Hopefully an easy day and home by 4. Might stop by golf galaxy on the way home and try on some shoes for the upcoming season 

[GolfSpy_BOS]

Happy Saturday! 
 

Annual St. Patrick’s Day party at our house today.  Nana is going to be cooking around 30lbs of Corned Beef plus all the fixings.

[sirchunksalot]

Good morning everyone! Happy Saturday and I hope y'all have an enjoyable weekend. I'm just taking it easy right now drinking my coffee before making some breakfast later. It's going to be a taking care of the wife weekend, she's a bit under the weather and I'm going to do what I can to bring some sunshine into her life. 

We're going to make waffles later on today, I got a craving for them after seeing @GolfSpy_BOS post about them the other day.

Good morning on a late winter looking WNY Saturday that started with that bally grapple snow that really fits the term snow shower, that became lazy clumpy flakes that have gotten smaller and starting to move across as they descend with wind picking up and sunshine working its way between broken clouds.  Snow clouds are lower elevation things so when they get smaller they get brighter until the sun streams through the breaks. Should move on past us later this morning.  Breaks are gone, steady snowfall perfect for Christmastime.  Happy St. Patrick's Day weekend 

Okay that was maybe way too much but from the calendar it is going to become a rare event soon (You hear me Mother Nature?!!! Sorry just kidding! hehe Some golf weather please??)  Forecast holds 20-30mph wind, gusting Force 8 on the Beaufort Scale. 

Hot orange pekoe in the mug.  Looking forward to PGA HOPE session 6 of 6 at WildWood CC in Rush NY indoors this afternoon. 

[tony@CIC]

Morning spies! Looks like a great weather day even though a cold front is moving in for a couple of days - 18 hole couples golf starting at 12:00. today - we're all still recovering from yesterday's St. Patty's day party so it'll be interesting out there. 

Hope everyone has a great weekend. 

[Kenny B]

GM everyone!  Sore left elbow today; I’ve had so many different aches and pains that I’m starting to repeat them!!  Had this before, and it didn’t last very long so hoping for the same.  It’s supposed to be sunny today and high around 64º, and we have a 10am tee time.  Waiting for my second cup of coffee to be delivered to me in bed. 

[GolfSpy_KFT]

Another cold good morning from Wisconsin! Temps should start to rise Monday, coincidentally the first day of spring, and with it the range and course opening! 

[JFish350]

Good Saturday Morning Folks

 

Double header baseball games today starting at noon. Weather looks like it's going to hold on and be a nice day with high temp in the mid 60's. 

I am really hoping the rain holds off tomorrow as I am supposed to play golf. Weather app says 80% chance which means it's going to rain we just don't know how much or how hard. 

 

Have a great day fellas.

morning everyone

To follow up on yesterday's gm my daughter did very well at the heptathlon. She broke her college schools record for the most points earned at a meet by 138 points which is a good amount. She is a sophomore, so she has another two years to go. I think she will only get better. There were a ton of colleges there and she was coming in 4th place in a lot of events. I'm so impressed with her abilities and holding a straight A average. 

I submitted my Cobalt Q6 review this morning. So, I'm in golf mode again. My course is closed for open play today due to some qualifying rounds for a college event. But the weather is kind of crappy anyway. Tomorrow bright sunshine and in the 50's.

I was at the Portland Golf show and Cobalt had a booth. being inside it was very clear and had nice sized digital numbers I could read. Heading over to read your review. 

Congrats to your daughter with both the points  and even better her grades. My daughter play lacrosse in college and I know her struggles in keeping up with grades and team commitments. All we can do is be the supportive parents and enjoy watching our kids become functioning adults. 21 years went by WAAAAAAYYYY to fast.
