21st July 2024 – Washout
What the Trees taketh away, the Wind giveth back.
After the “blow” Friday night, Cookie (substituting for Amie, who unfortunately is on the sick list) walked the course Saturday morning & picked 16 balls, which had been shaken from the trees.
During his walk later in the morning, Ducky found another 8, including the one he lost on the 7th last Sunday. Can he adjust his score from last week so he officially, “didn’t have to raise the bat”.
7 members turned up prior to today’s tee-off time. 3 with no intent & 4 “may-bes”, due to the weather & significant water on the course.
2 of the “may-bes” turned into “no-be’s” as the rain continued to pass through in showers/downpours.
Goog & Brian P (in his fully enclosed buggy), were the only ones to brave the elements. Last seen heading down the 4th. Good on ya fellas.
With rain forecast for much of the week, we’ll have to keep an eye on the course for next Sunday.
The bar renos are coming along very nicely. Flooring down, ceiling replaced, painting done, fridge & till are in. It’s looking good. Good job Spinner & his band of helpers & tradies.
Stay warm & dry & have a great week.
