The Best Fathers Day Gift I Ever Recieved

I know I am one of the most difficult people to buy a gift for. I usually just buy what I want when I think I need it. I know that I don't need any more golf shirts. I definately have more than I should in the way of golf equipment. I just have too much stuff! So, yes, I am a hard person to gift.


Well, this Fathers Day I was surprised, really surprised with a very unique memory box. I was given the best Fathers Day present that I have ever recieved.


My daughter, Mary, recently spent a lot of time hiding out in our office/craft room. I was not allowed to enter. When Mary sets her mind to somethng she is really creative and the results simply made my jaw drop in awe.

Mary put together some really cute golf themed items, a picture of us at a driving range and finished it off with a very nice note that took my breath for awhile. Mary wrote about how she loved spending time together and her love of the game of golf. She also mentioned she was learning from the best - and who am I to argue with that.


It was really a special Fathers Day and an awesome gift! I am very lucky to have a wonderful daughter.

Finally got to play - only nine holes while on vaction to the Dells in Wisconsin. Had to rent clubs because I did not have room in the car for mine. Yes, we overpacked!!!

A great day for golf, sunny and in the high 70's. My daughter played as well and we had a great family day with Debbie driving the cart.

The picture is me on the first tee - rather short hole, 250 yards to the center of the green. I started out with a good shot - drove the green and then proceeded to three putt. Remember I had to rent clubs - at least that is my excuse for not getting an eagle or birdie.
