Guys Day Out 2012 (Cullman Golf Course)


Missing last year because of an expected Rain Delay for the Shuttle Launch, but the guys did make it together this year for a Golf Outing.  We picked up an extra this year (Mark), which has thrown us into the unknown with a prime total of 5.  The 5-some worked well, even after Colby had to let some older guy at Cullman about the fact they better be open for him.  

Old Man:  We are closed today
Colby:  NO you are not
Old Man:  We had a big crowd, 15 teams! We will be busy till 6 PM
Mark:  WHAT TIME DID YOU START?

Old Man exits off stage left, reappears in snack bay window eating snickers and daydreaming about the girl he left one summer's morning nearly 40 years ago.  "She was the one" he thought to himself, as he realized the chubby red haired feller was still looking at him in disbelief.   "We are closed today" he muttered once more mostly to himself.  The Old man nods his head falling to sleep dreaming of what might have been.  

Colby:  What was up with that guy?
Mark:  I don't know, I was about to talk some smack, but figured he might be another Elder.
Colby:  Hey, cool shirt.
Mark:  Yeah, right back at you, Ice Man

OK, back to the golf...where were we at?  Ok, we all had some lunch at Chick-Fil-A, were required to show ourselves to the Listerhill crew, then off for the golfing.  

The first hole was very nice as I had a decent drive, then Colby was learning how to play in the trees.  I shared with the team that they were adding a new Walmart in Cullman.  Yeah, they found enough space between my ball and Colby's to put it there.  Boo Yah, I knew I would not get to use that again for the rest of the day.  I pared the first hole, then when crazy for the rest of the day.  Oh well, at least I got a picture of everybody taking a swing on our guys day out.  

After golf, we crashed and Granddaddy's and tried to hydrate ourselves after 6 hours in the 100 degree weather.  Crazy!  Next Year...White Water Rafting!
