Golfing At Copper Creek (Round 2)



What an awesome day.  The weather was gorgeous.  We arrived at Copper Creek a little early and were able to shoot a few balls before heading on the course.  We golfed 2 3somes this round.  Lawrence, John and Ralph were one team, and Grace H, Grace S and myself were another team.  Did not play my best game, but was 1 point lower than the last time we played Copper Creek.  We enjoyed another wonderful supper at Grace and Ralph's which consisted of Roasted Potatoes, BBQ Roasted Veggies, Lamb and some Chicken Ceasar Salad.  Dessert was made up of different tarts.  Had a great time together.

Settler's Golf - Monday April 25th



It wasn't promising to be a great day as the forecast was rain.  Every link we checked out had forecasted rain.  We headed up to Horsehoe Valley as we had free golf passes from the Golf Show at Settler's Ghost.  They would not allow us to play 3 ladies and 3 men together because they claimed to be too busy, so Lawrence and I had played with Jim and Judy.  They were a couple in their 60's.  We enjoyed a fun game and I had shot my best game ever with a score of 102.  Hoping to get below 100 this year and coming close.  John, Grace, Ralph and Grace were behind us.  They too shot great games.   Afterwards we enjoyed dinner at the Keg in Barrie and had a night cap at John and Grace's after that.  We can live with this kind of rain any day.  We could see evidence of rain close to John and Grace's but that was all.

Golfing At Copper Creek




We enjoyed a round of golf at Copper Creek on Saturday, April 23rd.  The weather started out a little wet.  We all had about 3 layers on, but as the day progressed we were stripping layers.  Grace told the starter that we would be in our bikini's by end of the game.  He had a good chuckle and told us he would be there waiting for us.  We met up with John Speelman on the 18th hole and enjoyed a drink with him.  Afterwards we were spoiled with a Roast Beef dinner at Grace and Ralph's.  We brought some trifle along for dessert.  What a fun day.  We did a lot of walking and by the end of the day, I could feel my body stiffening up.  Need to get more in shape for summer.

Last Round of Golf



We enjoyed a wonderful day of golf.  Played my best game but it still wasn't good enough.  Shot 109.  Each day getting better.  I think I need to stay another week.  At the end of our game, we saw some Pileated Woodpeckers.  That was neat.  This morning we went to see the beach and we saw a bunch of dead Jelly fish.  They were fairly big.  We are going to enjoy a late dinner at SeaQueue this evening and we are slowly packing things up to go home.

Hilton Head 2011


First try at logging in a blog.  Enjoyed a trip to Hilton Head with the Grace Helmus, Grace Speelman and Claudia Loopstra from April 2nd to April 9th, 2011.  Played 5 rounds of golf and enjoyed some site seeing of the Island.  The unit we stayed in was beautiful and we enjoyed watching the Alligators in the morning.  We had one day of rain which turned out to be our shopping day.  What a blessing to be able to enjoy each other's company this way.
