Too cold for golf.
 

Monday was great. Temps in the 30's, no wind, early end to the frost delay - a great
way to get in about 5 miles of walking.

But, temp of 22, and winds of 10-12mph does not make for great golf. Besides, the
course is closed due to frost delay...probably until noon.

Well, you could always load up your pistols and then clean them.

Given your latest rants, if I were you I'd go talk to my wife before you do what
you're suggesting above. You've got a problem, Harry. Get some help.

I was in Endicott (NY) in October of 79 working at the support center
and I thought a bright sunny day in the 60s would be great golf at the
IBM course. After what I thought was a great tee shot on #1, I walked
up over the hill and found my ball was somewhere in a snow covered
fairway. The south side of the hill was green, the north side white.
I went back to the car.

Endicott is tropical compared to the upstate NY town that I grew up
in.

No, no, no. Find your ball (look for the hole in the snow) and move it to a place
without snow. Legal. We do it all the time, when we have some snow. If the course is
open, then there is enough un-snow-covered ground to have a decent round.

It's great that you play when it is in the 30's and I suppose upper
20's...that way, when you fall over and die from a heart attack or
hypothermia, the cold will preserve your body.

Don't they have orange florescent balls for that?
I have that problem this time of year playing fetch with our dog at the park.

I understand that is where you use colored balls, golf balls for Harry's
sick mind.

Get out and do some walking. I always end up taking off garments that I started with.

It *is* nice to see you can make a post without name-calling. Although, it does seem
as if you're a bit over-focused on my death.
