You expect me to feel sorry for you when my breadth is freezing when I go out to get the mail and I'm sitting here in front of a fire watching them play golf in their shirtsleeves at Torrey Pines? (Got to admit however that my own "drives" are now going 250 yards! Sort of like playing golf in a parking lot)

 

There was a bet once where a guy said he could hit a golf ball one mile. Anyone know how this was done?

 

Well .. YES ! A friend would feel that ..

We (I didnt) ask for all this rain .. snow, yes, rain, no.



BTW, check it out ...
comments are posted about three times per day, but the pictures update every TWO minutes.

I know, I know! If I posted you some "timed" pictures you would think of them as all taken at the same time with no blue sky, just 100 yards visibility all day in a dirty gray snow shower. I don't think any one has seen the top of Mt. Washington since Xmas. And I'll bet Katsman, who started this thread doesn't even go out for the mail.
I will really feel for you however when I see the "mud slides" sure to be in the future. (And if the final day at Torrey Pines is cancelled account of coastal storms)
Don't have any idea how I'll spend tomorrow afternoon if this happens!

 

Allow me to explain a different way?

even the cats?

 

Where is our northern friend Katzman's Caddy anyway?

 

probably broke the snow shovel and he is waiting out the winter ...

 

A.C."Titanic" Thomas won the bet by hitting golf ball across "FROZEN" Lake Geneva in Wisconsin. Distance exceded 1 mile.

 

Well now I have a sno blower spread all over my workbench. Transmisslion gave up the ghost yesterday and it cost me $75.00 and four kids shoveling to get my SUV out to the street through the new 12 inches. Hopefully Sears parts dept is as good as they were the last time I used them about ten years ago.
