Blaze & Daze

I've been resting for 2 days, exhausted from boat rides, hauling stuff up n down docks, pushing wheel barrows.
I'm so glad I don't have to return to the haunted island till next year.

Never noticed this before - Rocky looks like he's hauling off an OCB 1.25 cone

Mornin' y'all. Because urban squirrels have zero chill, I'll be gettin' some mesh wire to go around the outdoor pots this year. The little d-bags have nearly uprooted the kale, cuces etc. I'm not giving them the chance with the ladies. Just temporary until everything is root established then they can be removed. Squirrels seem particularly ruthless this spring

I hear you Mr. Chiz. They are pretty aggressive this spring ...

And there seem to be a lot more of the little black fucks - chipmunks too - digging holes in the lawn, back garden and flower pots. They have been real active ever since the snow melted. I can't believe I am saying this but I wouldn't mind seeing the return of our neighbors feral cats. They did a great job keeping those critters in check..

I have a fox I could lend you

Also seeing an uptick in the larger rabbits. I'll take it @shnkrmn - we are in need of some predators. At night, I can hear the coyotes yipping and howling over on the east side of the lake but they won't venture here. There must be some real good vittles in those areas.

Playing solo behind 5 flatbellies in the rain was exactly what I needed. 2 under on the back, 1 over on the front. See if I can hold on for 2 more holes.

Gadzooks - I am not used to seeing a five-some. Slowin' you down or were they keeping a somewhat decent pace?

They are customary at my club. Took a couple years to get used to it. Still mandatory 4 hour round. I don't enjoy being in one but they move along. Especially the flatbellies!

Nobody fixes their divots?

Nope ... not on the tee decks.

There's divot mix next to every tee but it's Memorial Day weekend. Lots of play and lots of staff on holiday. I spent years repairing divots on 'my' hole. When I transitioned to senior status here, someone else took up my duties. Also, that view encompasses the forward and junior tees. No further comment needed!

Harley got his last round of puppy vaccines this morning.

Couldn't keep his lunch down. Tomorrow we ride.

Yup ... love that aspect of the long holiday weekend. Nothing in any of the tee bins or cart bottles ... then you come around the corner and you see PILES of the stuff for more divot mix in the maintenance sheds.

And just a random thought as the next wave of sideways rain appears to be ramping up ... weed would not do well in that golf course divot mix. A little too sandy, methinks.

I could be wrong but that has the look of a direct accusation over the jab or over the loss of second lunch
