We made plans with Bonnie and Al to go golfing to Palmview in McAllen. We had a 10:00 tee time, Al and Bonnie picked us up at 9AM. The day was warm but the wind was up, as seems to be the case more often than not this March. The pace was good, and the course was in pretty good shape overall. We all golfed pretty well, but the two girls Bonnie and Katie both shot 42 on the back 9. Very good score, especially due to the fact the wind was a factor. Katie hit one heck of a drive on #9, a par 4, and she was only about 60 yards from the green. If she had the opportunity to play all the time, she would be so good, and would likely be shooting in the 70's fairly consistently.
We had a good time golfing with Bonnie and Al as usual. After we got home Katie and I were going to go to the pool, but it was fairly crowded with a lot of folks just standing there talking. Doesn't make for a good swimming experience.
Then our friend June dropped by and invited us for a going home gathering at their place. A lot of our friends who are going home tomorrow or Monday, have food left over they want to do something with. So there was all sorts of food available, and drinks. It never fails...good conversation, a ton of laughs, and the feeling of how good it is, to share the outdoors in a warm climate, with people you really like.
It started to cool off around 8PM so goodbyes were said to those leaving. Katie and I came home and relaxed for the rest of the night with some TV.
and so ends another great day in the valley...
more later...
