We finished golf – changed and headed out to Carolina beach –
to the LAZY PIRATE – a sports bar – open air – covered
wild Buffalo Bills bar !
The Lazy Pirate
During our many years back in NYS – we were Bills fans –
all through the years up to the four super bowls
and beyond.
For three years after we moved – we tried to follow them.
But – alas – in the DC area – they were not to be found
unless we went into the city every Sunday
to find the Bills places !
This was and is Redskins country !
How ever our friends remained loyal followers and no matter what find the game somewhere each and every Sunday !The crowd is picking up !They kept filing in !
I was surprised – I met and talked to people from back home
All with their red- white and blue
true Bill’s fans !
Even met Eric – who was in a band for ten years with a lady both Sherry – Jim and I worked with at the tile plant in Olean NY. Donna !As you can see – open air – covered and corn hole in the yard !Waiting for the call ! Dottie Cindy JimCindy – rabid fan !Bills score !
The place was nuts – everyone shouting !
Buck and Cindy

It was a great time –
Had the real wings from Buffalo !
And some had the “BEEF ON WICK ” !
Victory song ” SHOUT “
All things come to a close-
we spent the day golfing and watching the Bills
Laugh – joke – and friendship Cindy Jim Sherry Dottie
Good morning Of course – part two of why we are all together Guys vs. Gals GOLF
That is what we do – and this has been on going for years !
This time we only played nine holes –
On Sunday morning – as we also had to hurry home-
change and rush to a PIRATE BAR to watch the “BILLS ” !
That is my next blog – but today – we gave strokes !
As much as I did not want to – we did ! LOL
Buck Dottie Jim Sherry discussing the course before we had to be there at 8:00 AM.Sherry putting green at Magnolia Greens golf course Buck and Cindy have lived here for I guess 15 years or more !Cindy Dottie Jim Buck greens were fast even with dew on them !While every one else was putting Sherry was chasing ducks ! LOL
The match was nine holes –
We had to give them THREE STROKES !
And two replays ( do not know about that )
Jim made that deal !
Me – after all these years
know better
they will kick your butt !
Plus – we had to use everyone’s drive at least once
Ended up using Bucks four times – mine three times and Jim’s twice.
They started us on the back nine of 27 holes The Azalea course which the 24 th. fairway runs right behind their house ! View of the 24 th. fairway behind Cindy and Buck’s house in Magnolia Greens
The gals went out first –
and we could tell if they were playing good
The antics on the green we could see and hear !
The three of us that are retired keep telling the youngsters that this is what you have to do ! YEAH RIGHT !!!!
The course was in really great shape –
and we never saw anyone until the 24 th. hole
a two some playing behind us !
Cindy Sherry Dottie selfie before they started off
The gals played well – we could tell that this was going to be tough !
We watched them tee off – all three right down the middle-
That is their game
US – it is right or left !
They took a picture on one of their drives
all three balls were right beside each other
in the middle of the fairway !
Buck Tom Jim The three amigo’s friends Jim and I go back to playing softball in the late 70’s early 80’s Buck and I 39 years We watched as all three hit this island green par three – with water on three sides they were putting for birdie!
We were sailing right along – one under par after six holes!
We were getting ready lots of chatter
We were playing good – actually making putts !
One putted first three holes !
Jim checking score That is when we started to sweat
Those THREE STROKES were going to be big in the end !
DON’T GIVE STROKES they will kill you they never lose balls and are always in middle and on the green most times in regulation ! Sherry Dottie Cindy

Jimmy – on 24th. fairway with Buck and Cindy’s house in back ground across the pond !
We had boggy’s on the last three holes
and they were watching and waiting for us on the last hole.
Giving them the three strokes
we ended up winning by ONE STROKE
and if we had not one putted those first three holes
well – as always – luck plays a role !

Cindy – Dottie – Jim and Buck roof top bar with the battleship North Carolina in the back ground on the Cape Fear riverSherry Buck Cindy Tom Dottie Jim then it was onto lunch before heading to the escape roomSherry Dottie Buck Jim Tom Cindy lunch
We were going to be lock away for one hour in a room
looking for clues – solving riddles – finding keys –
and how to unlock the VAULT where all the money was !
We walked to the building and up the stairs
to the waiting room – we had a appointed time !
We were given instructions – some do’s and don’ts
WE HAD NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE
and were some what fortified with a few drinks !
We had no idea what we were getting into
HINT – on a 1 to 10 difficulty on your first try
pick a number under 3 !!!!!!
This was a NINE out of TEN !
Cindy – “WE GOT THIS” NOT !!!!!Buck and Sherry getting ready before we are locked in ! MAYBE SHOULD NOT OF HAD THAT LAST DRINK !!!!Sherry Buck Dottie Cindy inside the room before it is closed and locked and this picture before I was told “NO PICTURES” OOOPPPSSS !
This room is full of clues that no one has any idea what they mean !
And everything is locked –
And combination locks –
A lot of keys to be found –
and no idea what they unlock
because some are inside locked doors with combination locks!
And then the door shuts and locks and everyone scatters and starts looking not knowing just what they are looking for !
We had 60 minutes and a big clock that counted down !
Things were being found –
but no idea what they meant –
At least we were all locked in together
The group did find clues and were able to solve some problems
and some locks were opened
and some combinations solved
but time was running out
and this huge BANK VAULT door loomed on one side of the room.
Then the clock ran out –
Sirens began –
COPS were on their way
we had to open the door and clear the room in 15 seconds !

Cindy Buck Dottie Jim Tom Sherry We failed recovered NO MONEY heck – we still have no idea how to solve the clues except for one !
One clue – a picture – and a pair of binoculars –
We were told the picture was of a building down the street outside
You look at the small picture and see the date that it was built
A view over the pond to the golf course from the back patio
We decided that the next day would be walk in morning –
( Cindy and Sherry )
while the rest rested up
and had coffee looking at this view
My favorite room of this houseI can just imagine a gentle rain and the rumble of thunder !Sipping coffee watching the course being watered !
I have always liked this area of N.C.
Twenty minute car ride to the beach
but far enough away from the storms
Magnolia Greens has 27 golf holes
And another twenty minutes to down town Wilmington !
Buck Dottie Jim and Sherry in the kitchen with the view of the pond
