May, 2016

I think this is my favorite golf photo of all time, taken in Mt. Tremblant, Canada, Sept, 2012
I love the conflict of the deer in between me and my ball.  That same day, a dog came running out onto the course and took off with my ball.  His owner came after him - shouting and waving his arms in the air (in French I'm sure) - and in the chaos, the twosome we had been paired up with finished out the hole and bolted for the next tee without us.  It was totally something out of a Bill Murray flick.

          May 5, 2016 - Spring is definitely springing and golf season is officially on.  Had my first round last week.  The back nine at Mt. Hood was a little chilly, but I love to play on those days.    Over 9, we only came across a twosome, who blew by us in a heartbeat .  We had the whole course to ourselves...Nothing better than that :)  Especially for practice.  You can take your time, take more than one shot.  Relax.  Love, love, love it...

          Golf is definitely in the air, in spite of the rain and 40 degree weather.  My friends left for Florida this morning - 80s forecast.  But you can't beat this time of year in New England.  It really miraculous to see the foliage come back.  Tulips & daffodils - it's the best.  I took this photo in my back yard yesterday: 


 
 
It's great to be back outside.  Life is good.   Let's go play some golf ! 
Happy Cinco de Mayo, Jayn
