Guess I'll go play 18 holes and hope the ponds are frozen over enough to bounce
the short balls up to the greens.

Yeah, it's only -4.2C, but the wind's not too bad.

They were not frozen last Saturday.

Mine will be, monday...

Yeah, that 55F stuff is a real bitch. Hell, that's 25 degrees warmer than was
our high for the day!

Your greens, your ponds, or your balls?


Balls, man. But instead of 12 degree for a high, I guess it's been
raised to 23.... wow, a heat wave.

I got to the golf course at around 8:30. Waited until 11:30 for the frost delay
to be over. Then left. Crap.

Oh well, the dog wins. She'll get her three miles in today.

A few lite sprinkles this morning on the way home from the gym. But maybe
60 degrees.
Poured yesterday after we got the Christmas tree in the Santa Cruz
mountains. Went to Santa Cruz and got some stuff at Costco and a pizza and
went out to Steamer Lane to watch the surfers. Only one standup paddle
board guy and small swells and calm seas. Should have taken the boat out
crabbing at Pillar Point.

Speaking of Christmas trees...did happen to see Al Roper, et al, asking for
contributions to NBC's 'Green Week' to plant trees in an effort to replace all
those cut down for Christmas? I saw it during the Christmas Tree at Rockefeller
Center lighting show.

Their begging almost brought tears to my eyes.

Of course, there was no mention of the fact that about 98% of the Christmas
trees used in this country come from Christmas tree farms.

What was on those Christmas tree farms before they scraped the land off
and planted Christmas trees?

I'd use a plastic tree made with only local oil.
