Golf With the Grandsons

Although we live close by it is not often that we have the opportunity to play golf together. The other day was such an occasion. Theresa, myself and the two grandsons played 18 holes at a Oakville golf course. The two boys are rivals,age 16 and 25 they compete at most things. Theresa and I love the game because it gets us out in the green  acres of the golf course together but the boys take it more seriously.

Each of them is capable of hitting the ball 280 yards on a regular basis. However they sometimes hit a stray shot and at that great distance they have a problem as their error causes grief on the score card. Good humored conversation and frequent checks on the score card makes the competition keen.

The younger of the two has great potential as he is also an all star catcher for the Oakville baseball team and with his gained strength he rivals his older and much taller brother. The weather was perfect and as the day wore on it was evident that the eventual winner would be Adam the older brother.It was also evident that we all just enjoyed playing the game together.

It is always a good time when you have the good fortune to share over four hours of time with your children or grand children. This day was no exception and we completed the game with the wish that we would be able to repeat the joyful experience in the near future.
