The last two days I played 31 holes of golf in approximately 18 hours....plus it was 100 degrees outside.  Kris and I went down to Bethany Beach, DE to visit former church members. My friend Dick works at a golf course and could get us on a Jack Nicholas designed course....some holes 600 yards!  CRAZY!  But a beautiful course; tough as all get out;  the hardest course I have ever played. Ashamedly I tell you I shot a 120!  But the course had 169 bunkers; 15 out of 16 holes had water between you and the hole; it had "signature" tees that you needed the Course Pro to sign off that you could hit from!  It was so frustrating -- yet it was completely enjoyable.  I threw my club once....I was set up to chip onto the green and go for my first par....instead I chucked the ball into one of the 169 bunks and took a 6!!  That's when the sand wedge went for a flight!  I felt better and finished the course. When I got home and told Kris, she said, "I could never enjoy a game that makes me that frustrated!"  I told her that men love it -- it's a challenge to conquer....like she was!!!  I'm lucky she didn't have a club in her hand....oh well, I play again Friday!!  that would make 49 holes in five days - a new record!
