So yesterday was thursday. I took the day off, because we had gone to see the midnight showing of the new Star Wars movie: Revenge of the Sith (see synopsis in previous post ;)). So i woke up around 11:30 in the AM, and shortly there after Boehm and I headed off to golf at Rocky Point golf course. A Fine, fine course run by the Baltimore County public golf courses. Its such a nice place to play, and weekdays for fee’s and a cart is only 23 bucks. The thing that makes it great, is that its right on the upper end of the Cheasepeake Bay. There’s this 1 Par 3, 188 yard hole that is literally right next to the bay. You start up high so you have just an awesome vantage point to look out over the water, and see the light house way on the other side of the bay (not to far at this far north of the bay, but still a distance). From there Boehm was telling me some stories of him and his grandfather boating out on the bay, and putting the boat out and going to a small island out past the light house he was pointing too. I think its a story i’ve heard before, but a good one none the less, and I’m always glad to hear some personal history when we’re out at cool places like that.

Even with that, the day was perfect, and it was probably one of my more enjoyable days golfing in a long while. (I shot a 111, I had some really good holes, and some bad holes, but overall i was content with what i shot). The one thing with golf that I can say. Is that no matter how bad i do on any hole, if i have that one perfect shot or really good hole, that makes my day. I remember them too. Yesterday i had a beautiful 5 wood fairway shot that left me on the green of the 8th hole in 2 strokes (it was a par 4). I had a long shot for birdie that i missed, and I ended up just missing the hole on a shot that I had made previously in the day to miss par. So the whole ended up as a bogey. But really i didn’t care, because that 5 wood shot was just that awesome and perfect. Makes you realize you can be good, and makes the game worth playing. It just feels good to do something like that, even if you’re not consistent.
