A Tad Breezy on the Course

Went golfing today amid some pretty significant Santa Ana winds. I watched the wind take a ball sitting on the green and blow it up a hill.
Yep...it was *just that windy*! (I took a series of photos of things blowing sideways as well, but the picture I misses was when Ken set out the plates of cat food and they immediately blew off into the pool! I was alerted to the fact by the sound of cursing!

Well the stick certainly has a bend to it. Did it blow the ball into the hole? That is what happened to me a few weeks ago.

Lovely image telling a windy story Ron, mother nature just adding a little more difficulty to the game, at least the sun was shinning:)

That was definitely a stiff breeze you were playing against. Those Santa Ana winds can be beastly. That's when I should play golf, when it's windy so I can blame my hooks and slices on Mother Nature instead of my complete inability to drive a ball.

@Weezilou Ken cursing?!? Wow, it WAS windy!

@terryliv Oh, to be so lucky, Terry! Sorry, in this case the ball move away AND above the hole! I'm waiting for an earthquake to knock my ball in.

@pcoulson Thanks, Peter. The game is hard enough without mother nature's input. You're right, though - at least it's warm and sunny.

@stray_shooter I went out and bought some melmac plates today...and wow...they haven't blown away yet! Thank heaven for the cooling clouds!

@lyndemc I know what you mean - I was preparing all of my excuses and blame, but oddly I ended up having one of my better days, and while the wind affected almost all the others, I ended up with first place in the day's tournament. Not a good trend.

@simta Температура была очень удобно, около 27 градусов. Но ветер был очень сильный, с порывами до 130 км/ч. Там был некоторый ущерб городу из-за ветра.

@stray_shooter Way t'go, Ron! You'll be the only guy planning your golf outings according to the wind forecast.

@stray_shooter А сколько же летом градусов?
January 26th, 2015  
@simta Лето-это так же, обычно около от 27 C в 33. Это немного необычно, чтобы быть это тепло в зимний период. Ничего, как Москва!
