600 Mile Drive to Golf with my Best Friend


Ray and I have done many things together but there was one activity that we both love yet had never been able to do together, the wonderful game of golf. So with an extended weekend upon us we drove the 600 miles just so Ray and I could play some golf.

Golf is something I certainly love to do yet ever since Kristy purchased my clubs back at a pawn shop in Jacksonville , NC I have only been able to play a handful of times. So when the opportunity presents itself I jump at the occasion. Ray is able to play much more than I, especially recently, so in my mind I figured he just brought me along to have someone to easily beat.

Bryan Golf Course was pretty nice but the day was a bit gloomy, oh well, we golfed despite the impending rain clouds hovering over us.

Along with us was Andrew, he works for Ray and happens to be very good at golf. Ray and Andrew golf together pretty often and hence my theory about Ray wanting to bring me along just to have someone to beat. Apparently Ray is no match for Andrew.

Now if Ray was no match for Andrew my game was not even worth mentioning, good thing I golf for the fun of it.

Despite my poor golfing skills I actually experienced a first from my golf game during this match. For the first time I actually landed on the green straight from the tee-off. Granted it was only a par 3 hole but it was still an accomplishment in my book.

To top our game off right we all got a good laugh when Andrew hi-centered his golf cart which required Ray to use his cart to push him out of his predicament.


In the end we all had a rather bad golf day but like I said I was only in it for the fun. In that respect I had a great time golfing with my best friend Ray.
