Halfway there!
Today (November 10th, 2013) I played my last round of my current road trip in Guymon, Oklahoma. After 21 months into my quest I have just surpassed the halfway mark. My count now stands at 26 states played.
I played Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado last weekend, then attended a conference in Denver for a week and today I played both Texas and Oklahoma, after playing New Mexico yesterday. Yesterday also marked another very special occasion on this quest as I managed to drive two golf balls off the top of Pikes Peak (elev. 14,110 ft). Neither one of them were my best efforts, but I figure they both measured between 2 or three miles! I checked with one of the workers at the Summit gift shop before doing so and he informed me that he had done the same thing a couple of times as well. He informed me which side to hit from, ensuring that no hikers might get “pinged” accidentally!
- Lining up for my longest drive ever!
I’ll be flying back home on Tuesday (Nov. 12th) where I’ll be going into golf hiatus for a couple of months. My wife informs me that it snowed back home yesterday, though I think it has disappeared already. That being said, it won’t be long until it stays for awhile.
Though this current trip is over, I am still playing “catch up” with my writing. I’ll have a few more tales to post over the next little while. So keep coming back “Y’ALL”!
