So my Dad and I were playing a round of golf on a typically perfec fall day in Michigan, and per usual, my dad was driving our cart. The only time I would drive was when, as usual, he was hitting into/through/around dense foliage, and I would take myself and the cart a safe distance back. On the 16th hole my dad’s drive found the second cut of rough on the right side of fairway next to a dribbling “creek”, and creek is used quite generously in this instance.

To save you the suspense and me the embarrassment (at least some of it), I will get to the point. After driving a good measure down the fairway to get to the wooden “bridge” (again used generously) and finding his ball, I was reluctant to drive all the way back to the bridge; so, I did the most logical thing (at the time), and decided to drive through it. Take a look at the result:

    Daniel,

    My recollection of this event is far different from yours…”Dad, I’m going to drive across the creek!” My response,”there’s no way you’ll make it. When you get stuck I won’t help you…”

    The part where we received our $1 deposit rings true.

    Look forward to our next round of golf.

    Hopefully won’t need two golf carts pulling us out of the raging rapids…

    Love, Dad
