“Hole in one today, 8 iron, 135 yards, one hop into the jar!” As you can tell, Kent is a man of few words. I guess he has had to be having been married to me for 44 years today – April 15, 2008. This was a wonderful anniversary present for both of us.
Kent is really excited about this accomplishment. Most of you know that Kent “lives” at the golf course. He plays six days a week and would play seven but our country club closes on Monday. This is his first “hole-in-one” ever!
The long story goes like this. Kent had just finished walking the first nine holes. He told his two golfing partners that he was going to go and get a cart to finish out the last nine holes because the wind was really wearing him down. By the time he got the cart and returned to the 10th tee, his 2 partners were already on the green waiting for him. He hit the ball, it hit the green, bounced a couple of times right into the hole. They were right there to see it go it. What a surprise for Kent.
Word got around the club quickly and everyone who saw him shook his hand and congratulated him. He finished out the day with an 80. Great day on the golf course!
