Four on the Green!



Well, here's something we've never seen or done before! We were golfing with our friends Meg and Bob at the Sandhill Executive course, first hole. If you look closely, you can see FOUR balls ON the green! Yes, we ALL hit the green with our first shot. We all thought it was necessary to record this historic moment with a picture!


This week Jim cut down the hibiscus bush at the corner of our porch. Wow, what a difference it makes in how light the porch is! Here are two pictures -- one taken before (it's the big bush on the left corner of the house) and one after it was cut back.....and we're going to cut it back even more, almost to the ground, like it was cut last year. They grow FAST!!



Well, Gus is getting braver....the squirrel was out in the hibiscus bush (before Jim cut it down!) and Gus actually went right up to the screen....




This cart was parked next to us at the golf course last week.....thought you'd get a kick out of it...




Can you read what it says? Harley Davision! And here's a closeup of the dash area....




On our way to golf on Wednesday, we passed Lake Miramar, and the remote sailboaters were doing their thing......pretty sight!




Until we get the hide-a-bed moved out of the den/sewing area, I am going to do my cutting for sewing out on the porch -- it has a nice bright light at night, and great light during the day. I finally got the embroidery machine out this week and am embroidering the pillowcases I sold at the craft show, as well as a few things for family...








Wow, the tangelos are really getting big and healthy looking! They are starting to turn orange...but they won't sweeten up until we have a good frost, probably mid-December.







And here's the last little gem for this post.....when we filled up with gas the other day this gentleman was ahead of us....reminded us of the U. P. where the snowmobiles drive up to the gas pumps too!! (incidentally, gas is around $2.25 per gallon down here...what is it up north?)












Okay, that's enough for one day!! I'll be looking for your comments on this blog!
Love ya
