Mighty nice weather up here in Toronto. Played a nice round of golf (actually 27 holes), sunny and about 60F. Got to love that global warming!!

Oh yeah, to keep this coin related, I found a quarter on the 6th green.

    Very nice. My son and I played monday. They say you never truly learn a subject until you teach it. I've been teaching him the mental side of the game which is 90% of it. The other half is physical. So feeling confident I told him I was going to shoot 78 and he said "no you aren't, you have to play the back tees today." I did and shot 77. He shot 110 from the forward tees, not bad for a 7 yr old.

    It was 75. Today it feels like 80.

    We used an 1880 micro o VAM 1.632 Morgan Dollar for a ball marker. (made up the VAM number but the rest is correct).

    Based on your username (DoubleEagle59), I'm guessing you're an excellent golfer. image

    My hips get tight too. I have to rock like that, well, not exactly like that, before I tee off too. --Jerry

    82 here today until a cold front came through about 1pm and knocked it down to 68...... Brutal

    Based on your username (DoubleEagle59), I'm guessing you're an excellent golfer.

    Actually, 'Doubleeagle59' has a lot of meanings for me.

    The doubleeagle is obviously coin related and also golf related (I did get one double eagle in my time: Driver and 4-iron smack dab in the hole on a par 5!! Boy, what a rush! My son and my two good buddies were there to witness it else they would never have believed it.)

    and the 59 relates to the all elusive 59 score for a golfer (only in my dreams!!) and 59 relates also the the year of my birth '1959'.

    I'm still 62 today, but I'm so tired I feel like 80.
