Papa’s World – Golfing NEW YEARS DAY with friends!

We spent the night at our friend’s house at Magnolia Greens just outside Leland, N.C., and also friends from Va. Beach stayed.

We played a scramble Gals vs. Guys and gave them TWO strokes over the 18 holes!

Now that may sound like not enough – but on the 18 th. hole – they missed a five-foot putt that would have won the match!

We ended up tying 37 to 39! Only because they boogied the last hole!

As you can see the ball went toward the hole and just stopped inches to one side – that putt would have been the winner!

Sherry had putt just before and Cindy was even closer!

Last hole – par four and they were here in two and three-putt – great job by the ladies and we needed everything we could to tie!

Papa – Buck – and Jim – friends since the 70s – Jim is now retired as both Buck and me.

Cindy – Sherry – Dottie – arriving at number 18 – and at that time we did not know what they were shooting or that they had to par to win the match!

We try as often as we can to get together – having great times as friends for years.

Playing their drive on number 18 – par four – they ended up on the edge of the green.

Magnolia Greens as far as I am concerned is one of the best courses in our area – 27 holes and in great shape.

Sherry putt the third shot for birdie and was about five feet away.

Friends at Magnolia Greens golf course – Gals vs Guys – tied after 18 holes – love these peeps.

Papa’s World – NEW YEARS EVE PARTY WITH FRIENDS – next blog – let the party begin!

Papa’s World – walking the East end of OIB for sunrise with friends from N.H.

Our friends – Bob and Pam came in their RV to a campground near us for a four-day visit.

On the last full day here – we all got up before dawn – we stopped by to pick them up –

and we went to Ocean Isle Beach to the far North East end – to see the sunrise.

The weather had changed – a hurricane was coming into Florida and a cold front had arrived!

The beach was deserted – lonely – awaiting the storm to come through in a couple days.

The sunrise starts on a cold gray morning and an almost deserted beach.

We should have done this! LOL, It was breezy and cold.
This would be as good as it would get – time to go!
Bob Papa Pam Sherry – I want warm weather!

Now, this is more like it! LOL

Thanks for reading Papa’s World – not saying goodbye old friends – but until we meet once again – LATER!
