plyws blkue devil yesterday. pulled into the clubhouse lot and there were about 5 cars in the lot. pro-shop told me lots of folks cancelled. they told me i could go on my own, or play with a twosome that were getting ready. i was going to play witht eh twosome; however, one of the two guys said, i could go if i wanted and i said, it's ok i'll wait a few minutes. he then tells me they wont be ready for another 10m or so as they had to go to washroom etc. I took that as a message of we don't want you to golf with us.

played the front 9 in 70 minutes. Cauthgt up to a foursoem on 13 and they would not let me play thru - one of the group told me something about i'd have to wait anyway. did not understand him, and spent the last 6 holes stewing about it. got yhe the parking lot and one guy in the group was parked beside me, so i asked him what was up and apparently slade (ceo of golf calgary) does not want the grounds crew letting players thru in the morning.

would have been interesting to see how quick i could have been had i been able to play thru. Was great being able to hit and go for 11 holes.

had one blow up hole and 4 or so putts of less than 5 feet that i could not convert that prevented me from logging a score in double digits.

has been somewhat nice for me this year, as my wife is really enjoying golfing more than she has ever, so we are getting out together once per week. WE are thinking of perhaps getting a membership at serentity next eyar; however, i need to do the breakeven math and talk about if we are committed to golfing that much or if we just stick with the discount card
