I humor myself sometimes with when I choose to share some posts. Last Monday Ck4 and I played in a golf scramble for charity that overall was a fun time. At one of the holes there was a putting contest where you had to make a 12 foot putt to be put into the next round. The prize was an Orlando vacation. Everyone from our foursome made the putt on the first try which was unbelievable. In the final round there were about 15 participants putting a 40 footer that had some major break to it. Ck4 ousted the field putting it within 18 inches and taking home the vacation. I know he was eagerly awaiting my blog post about this story because Ck4 loves posts about Ck4. Since I know how much he enjoys these posts, I just toy with him and delayed that story for a week. It was well worth it though because I have more Ck4 content due to waiting.
On Saturday, Nikkii had set up a surprise birthday party for Chad about two weeks prior to his birthday to guarantee a surprise. My job was to keep him distracted for the day and have him show up to the party at the appropriate time. I decided golf would be a good way to spend some time so I booked a round at Talamore for the two of us. We played from a back tee box and the course proved mightier than the players (I did par the #1 handicap hole). We were able to see some wildlife in a deer with a bad leg, a baby deer, 2 swans, and a snake in the grass.

A few highlights include on the 17th hole there is a row of houses on the right of the fairway. I’m standing behind Chad and see that he’s aimed directly at the houses for some unknown reason. Thinking that his swing will make the ball travel in another direction I didn’t say anything and what do you know, he hits a BB right at the houses and it 100% hit something. Then on 18 he was about 150 yards out and for absolutely no reason other than entertainment, decides to hit a yellow range ball as a practice approach shot. He ends up sailing one way off to the right where the member area and pool is and I couldn’t stop laughing at how absurd it is that 2 jokers on a trial membership are causing so much havoc at the hoity toity Talamore club. Bulls in a china shop. We ended up leaving at 5pm and headed to a bar to grab a bite to eat and have a few drinks. We killed the couple of hours and headed off to the party location.
When we got there no one was upstairs and I legitimately think Chad had no idea a party was coming his way. Once the surprise hit we enjoyed a nice evening playing various games and enjoying everyone’s company. It was a swell time. I like that word swell. If you ever want to hear any jingles from back in the day, ask Mr. Helmstetter. The kegerator was a nice touch as well. I think Sam retired as the corn-hole champ (jokes welcomed). It really ended up being a great day and what life is all about. There you go Ck4, you’re the star of the blog.
Well said TC. I had a great weekend and getting to share it with all of my friends made it that much better.
