So I'm standing about 150 yards from the green on hole #10. I aim ... I swing ... I hit the ball hard ... and WAY LEFT! The ball goes out of bounds and over the protective wall with barbed wire. Next thing I hear is "PING"! Yes, my ball has hit the hanger for an F-15 Fighter. I sigh ... I drop a new ball ... I aim ... I swing ... I hit the ball hard ... and WAY LEFT again. The ball again goes on the same trajectory and again I hear "PING"! I hit the same hanger.
So what was a decent round of golf with a handful of pars and all I can think about is that I took an 8 on that par 4, and the indisputable fact that it is going to be impossible to beat my dad in golf from military prison.
P.S. Here is another quick conversation I had with Ava.
Ava: When can we go back to the beach?
Me: Which beach would you like to go to?
Ava: You know, Daddy, the one I was at with Mimi and Papaw.
Me: Ava, you know, I was there too.
Ava: You were?
Me:
Just illustrates that thing that is the Power of the Grandparent.
