Lakewood Lake No. 2/War Memorial Golf Course

I occasionally joke that I have used a walk as a warm-up for a drive somewhere or a round of golf, but this time that's close to how it worked out. Because of Ron's tweaked back, he and Elaine and I walked two laps around Lakewood Lake No. 2 this morning in 46:03, or 2.11 miles at over 23 minutes a mile. Roger "Tripod" Chinn and I are scheduled to tee off at War Memorial in about an hour. For the time being, I feel great. I have worked quite a bit on my swing after the disaster from two weeks ago at Rebsamen and am excited to see the result.
I played fine, but I still can't hit an iron worth a fuck or a wood very far. Roger, on the other hand, hits drives about, no kidding, 280 yards. I scored an 86 with nines of 45 and 41. Roger scored 88, but only because he hasn't played much lately. I used 33 putts.
