Today, our 9:00 group was down to 12 people. Normal is 19-23. It was 41
when I got out of the car at 8:45. When I finished at 12:20, it had dropped
to 37. I managed to make 28 points (birdie = 4, par = 2, bog = 1). Off
center hits were painful by the 10th hole onward.

Real golfers or just stupid?
That's like asking, "Ice, or just frozen water?"

Hardly worth the discussion here ;-) Here, in Germany, I have
played golf where the temp in the morning was 25 and it warmed up to
maybe 26. I still ask myself if I am that crazy. I cannot tell you
how many times we have teed it up at 8:00 am and it was below
freezing--sometimes with the wind blowing. Insanity at its finest.
For a while, we had six foursomes every Sunday morning and the weather
could not keep them away--unless it was raining and cold. To see our
groups going off when it is 30 degrees outside and we were not the
only ones on the golf course made me shake my head, yet, we kept
playing. The only times that there was no golf being played is when
the course was closed due to snow cover.

PS: I always swore that I would quit until April, since I kept asking
myself what the heck I was doing out there sometimes, but it never
seemed to work out that way
