Tractors and Golf




Today I became an official "Deep Creeker." I finally got a tractor....a lawn tractor. Hey, everybody has to start somewhere, right? Its a used one, probably 5 or 6 years old, but it is in really good shape and I spent about half of what I would have if I had went after a used John Deere. Maybe some day I'll be worthy of a Deere, but not yet. Now I have to figure out how to mow this crazy yard that we live on. Stay tuned. I have a feeling that there are some really funny stories just around the bend.

Tonight, Sue and I played three holes of golf. The conditions were great, and the course was immaculate. One of the holes had a river running through it. Another hole was lined with beautiful pines, and had mountains in the backround. In case you haven't guessed - we were playing on Josiah's Wii. I have discovered that I am as bad on the video game as I am on the real course. My beautiful wife of almost 25 years, who has NEVER played a hole of golf in her life beat me by....I don't know how many strokes. Part of me wants to practice so I can win a few matches, but the time to do that is not real high on the priority list. We'll see.

Happy birthday to my Dad! 78 yrs young and still an inspiration to me! Love you!
