I keep returning to a Saturday afternoon about 15 years ago, when our grandfather, my dad, your brother John and I were all out on the public course in Sebastopol, and I was excited to be playing my first full round of nine holes. (You may have been there too -- I can't recall.)<BR/><BR/>I was so proud of the par 3 I hit on one of the easier holes! (My overall score is lost to the ages. The best that can be said is that it had only two digits.)<BR/><BR/>I wonder why my dad has stopped playing. I'll ask him tonight. I miss that simple, physical connection with family.<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/>Eric.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02386367907827160055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32541547.post-65152269259676886532007-05-22T13:36:00.000-07:002007-05-22T13:36:00.000-07:00I'm not a golfer, but recently a woman in our cong...I'm not a golfer, but recently a woman in our congregation died after having Pick's disease for some time. She had been a musician and a piano teacher, and for as long as possible we had her still singing with a singing group.<BR/><BR/>I also wish I could e-mail your post to my brother-in-law, who is a golfer.Diane M.

This is a powerful post that offers a beautiful window into your relationship with your dad. I'm glad you have the time, as you make your way around the golf course, to remember your dad "dag nabbit"s and quiet satisfaction, patient teaching, and love. No wonder your golf game is improving. That would be great motivation! You will offer a great gift to your boys with this as well! <BR/><BR/>Peace to you, Smore cows than peoplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15848597902402114593noreply@blogger.com
