The Good Morning Thread


Recommended Posts

I think someone got Christmas break confused with spring break⛄⛄
 

Good morning Folks

no golf today, at least not till this afternoon. Mid to high 40s today. The white stuff should be gone later today. 

Car shopping for the wife from my lounge chair and golf on the tv. What I should really do is go change the wheels on the quad. If thats what I do it’ll be coffee and Baileys. 

have safe and wonderful day.

Wow! Late in the year for snow in Portland!!  My wife heard that Spokane got 4" last night.  That's 140 miles north of us... we got nothing.  But it was 34º this morning.  

We have a 9:30 tee time.  It won't get above 50º by the time we finish... and we have a breeze!!  Just finished coffee and toast, and headed to the course.

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

Years ago we had a car like that. We'd park the car in a grocery store lot far away from the front with no cars around and come out to see someone put a dent in it. We had so many instances that the body shop guy mentioned he wanted to give us a 'frequent shopper' discount. That was in addition to the mechanical issues! Finally sold the car and rarely would someone put a dent in it. 

Haha well.. had my first Suburban while I was still commuting to the city .. parked in one of the railroad's lots .. carefully, I thought .. car got dented three times over a few years while just sitting there...

Another time visiting friends, staying overnight, parked in front of their house in a suburban area .. came out the next morning to find a huge dent along the street facing side...

And... One time stopped at a stop sign, waiting for the car in front of me to cross to the further lane .. have my head turned watching oncoming traffic .. bang! .. they had decided not to cross and BACKED UP INTO ME...

Later on donated that Sub to an auto school and got a newer model .. well one time I'm stopped, fully, at a red light and kinda daydreaming minding my own business .. bang! .. somebody comes straight into me from behind, but fortunately at slow speed though still enough to fully crush the whole tailgate... 🤷‍♂️

Turns out that model year had recurring TCM issues / recalls so traded for the then new model year - and whew got away with zero "customizations" while I had it!

Good afternoon. I'm still posting here, because when you sleep in til 12:10pm, this is morning time.

Getting 11 hours sleep was amazing. I needed that. But now my back is stiff, going to have to do extra stretches. 

Maybe meeting a friend later at the indoor golf, he wants to check out the place as a possible haven for getting work done. His 2 year old is at the phase where he wants to "help" daddy arrange his papers and he'll fill in tapping the keyboard if my buddy strays from his laptop.

Guess I should move to a different part of Wisconsin (or much farther south).  The Milwaukee area isn't so lucky this morning.  Winter storm warning until 4pm.  5-9" of snow with winds gusting to 35mph.

Happy spring everyone!

A very late good morning from the afternoon side in WNY, lots of wind after this morning's downpours but still a great golf related day with a drive over to my new "home course" at Elma Meadows Golf Course of the Erie County Parks system to buy my season pass.  Hot coffee mug kept me company for the drive and wait in line. ☕

Interesting note is my member number for the Buffalo Olmstead Parks is 3882 and today's sequential member number for the Erie County Parks is 3881, and people are likely to call it coincidence, thank goodness I wasn't after the guy behind me or I would not know which card I was looking at if just looking at the member number. ☘️

Good morning! It's a later start than normal than normal @Triple_Putt. Today is my one day off and I took the opportunity to not wake up at 3 a.m., although I woke up at 1 and 5 just because my body hates me. My coffee is fresh and delicious and the animals are happy to have daddy home to cuddle with.

We'll be going out later to run our Sunday errands and it'll be nice to spend quality time with my better half. 

@GolfSpy_APH, I feel for you this week with the time change. I had forgotten when it happened over there until they told second shift they were shutting down at 9 p.m. to accommodate it because it would mess up our systems. We're connected to Germany and all our stuff runs through them. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!
