I just can’t help but add this report:  I played a round of par-three, nine-hole golf yesterday in Burnsville at the Birnamwood course.  We used an electric cart, but I did a fair amount of walking.  And I played better than I thought I would.  Some solid drives – got on the green in one stroke one time, played over a massive sand trap (instead of dropping my ball into it, which I halfway expected) another.  My putting wasn’t very good – but my putting is usually not very good.  And summer isn’t over until tomorrow, so I made my goal of playing a round before the end of summer!

Life is sweet.
