 This was soooooooo cool.   They asked if we wanted to kick back our 1:30 tee time to 12:36, and it's a good thing we did because otherwise would not have met Karen and Leon from Reno.   Super cool people in their 60's that were very laid back.   The kid teed off on the final hole needing a par to post a 79 but he bogeyed for a honorable 80 - beat me by three strokes.   In addition to the victory, the boy also won the affections of Leon and Karen.   We had so much fun.

 Played a practice round on Friday and the boy did much better than the last couple of weeks.   No question he plays much better on good courses.   Today he had three shit holes that did him in (+10 on those holes) but went +4 on the other 15.   Crazy.   Finished with an 86.   So much better than the last couple of weeks on those shitty courses. Lauren and Doug came out to watch the front nine.

 The boy and I had an absolute blast with Cliff and his buddy Normy.   Normy looks very much like Jim Furyk.   I LOVED this course - lots of elevation changes in a gorgeous setting.   The kid shot an 81 and notched his 10th birdie of the year when he drove the green on the short par four 9th hole and two putted from the first cut.   His reward was a ride in Uncle Cliff's Ferrari back to his place where we hung out for a couple of hours before our flight home.

 The kid won his 3rd school tournament at Shalimar by 6 strokes.   He was +5 on nine holes and was pretty consistent.
