Wow, what a weekend. And that was just the weather!
Saturday I played golf with my friend, Pete Ware, who is a member at Moorpark Country Club.
The starter put us out with two guys, Phil and Tom. What are the odds of playing golf with someone who grew up where you grew up, and who’s father is a good friend of a friend who grew up around the corner from you?
Hole 9 - Let It Ride - Creekside
It happened to me, Phil Jr. just got out of the Army after two tours in Iraq, and proceeded to share that he attended St. Francis High School in La Cañada where I grew up also. We started trading experiences, and came to find out his father is friends with my old neighborhood buddy Jim Campbell, and that his uncle worked with my friend Pete on a show for NBC. How many degrees of separation is that?
Anyway, I shot an 89 in windy conditions. The golf was fun and the company was great!
Sunday morning, I waived the Easter Egg hunt for a bike ride with my neighbor. Winding our way over bike lanes in better than summer weather! It was an hour and fifteen minutes of time well spent.
