Golf Season Begins

Golf season started early for Grandpa, Cal and Cameron this year as the weather in March was beautiful.  Even though it hasn't been as nice lately, the three of them have still found time to play.  Grandpa and Cal have even played a few rounds together.  Most of Camerons round have been with friends.  He was able to get in eighteen holes last weekend at the IU course with a friend of his in Teter.  He was proud to announce that he had shot a 43 on the back nine.  Cal also made time to play with friends this past weekend, driving to Erskine in South Bend to meet them for an afternoon.  He also felt great about his early season round, shooting an 88 on the day.

Grandpa had the most memorable start to the golf season.  He bought new clubs and was very pleased with them as he shot 73 twice with them.  Grandma had talked him into buying a new bag as well as the zipper on his old one broke.  Several weekends ago, Grandpa got a call from the golf course letting him know that the storage barn had been broken into and fifteen bags with clubs had been stolen.  He was obviously bummed, but hopeful that they would find them especially when he heard that they had caught a suspect.

After a lot of investigation, they police were able to find out who the second thief was.  He was AWOL, but they were able to recover multiple bags and clubs from his storage shed.  Unfortunately, Grandpa's clubs were not among those recovered.  The good news was that he got his monkey head cover back and Maxwelton would replace his bag and clubs.  Soon he will be back out on the course shooting a 73 with his "new" new clubs and would have an interesting story to tell.
