After years and years of playing, with many "close" but "not quite" David made a hole in one.
On Tuesday April 17 on hole #10 he hit the ball and it fell directly into the cup. He was playing by himself. When he walked up to the hole and saw his ball in the cup he looked all around hoping that someone was watching. No one to the left or right, or in front or back. He even looked up at all the nearby condos for someone to witness this lifelong dream. The rule is that if it isn't witnessed it isn't real. (Golfers are like fisherman they sometimes embellish the facts.)
He couldn't help himself, he had to tell the story anyway. Last week when he got home from work he found a package on the porch. On the outside it was addressed to Dave and a note that said "I believe you Dave" signed Brad. It was a blueberry shortcake and it was delicious. Yesterday this trophy was in a box on the porch when he got home. The note said:
Congratulations on your Hole in One. While we didn't witness it, your word is as good as gold! HA.
Your golfing Buddies,
Connie - Phil - Brad
They also wanted to know if his new clubs contributed to this achievement.
Now he knows he made one but it would only have been better if his buddies were with him.

Is this kind of like: If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?
Congratulations, Dad! Big time! Sorry no one was there to jump around with you on the 10th green...
Hope you are doing well.
Love
Todd
That is AWESOME!!! When I come down this summer I want to try for mine... I won't be able to have a blueberry pie to celebrate, but maybe some meat and cheese!
