Needless to say – you do not wander around – we do not get close – and they seem to just stay there. Hundreds of golfers play this course and do not go to the water to find your ball – same for high grass and weeds!

We only signed up to play nine holes – we were the last group to tee off at the BIRYD gold course at Sea Trails.
We were paired with two retired fellows who live there.
It was a warm day – almost 70 degrees and blue skies and sunshine.
The next day – was also nice and we made a tee time at 1:45 pm. at Oyster Bay for nine holes.
Thanks for reading Papa’s World – my next blog will be the GATOR’S we saw – really BIG GATORS!
This is a stressful time this COVID!
But – we practice social distancing and quarantine – and test!
We make plans and also are sure of the above.
2020 brings a lot of smiles also.
Being with friends is special – you laugh – you talk – and you share sorrows.
Family is important to us all.
You SEE on Zooms –
You TALK on phones
You HEAR on both
You connect whenever you can and try to make plans.
Sometimes – COVID interferes
But you move on – test and return.
When it does become possible – you make the most of it!
2020 still has its fun times.
2020 – well – you make the most of it when you can!
We all are from BILLS territory
we all were there for the run of FOUR SUPER BOWLS in a row!
And now – as we all moved South –
We once again are watching them!
We try to play as much golf as we can now that we are in the South!
Our friends – Buck and Cindy are 45 miles away
so we can meet up halfway and play!
Once a week since we have moved down here.
There are over 100 courses to select from!
LASTING FRIENDSHIPS – YEAR BLESSED – ALL DURING A PANDEMIC!

Our friends – Jim – Dottie – Buck and Cindy – came for a visit!
And we planned to golf two different days!
The last day was at Oyster Bay – not very far from Calabash
The Seafood capital of the world
and home to many – many “GATORS” on the course!
BIG GATORS!
We had a gals vs guys match
and off we went –
I had listened to other players who had finished
talking to the starter about the “GATORS”
and how big they were!
We saw them a lot – esp. on the middle holes!
One par three – surrounded by water – except a small walking path
lined with flowers and tall bushes
kind of sketchy walking through there
had a drop zone right next to the green.
And a large sand trap.
Well – right next to the drop zone lay a six foot gator!
Dottie actually hit her ball and it landed on the green and rolled into the drop zone!
Where she left it for some future golfer to find as it ws too close
to that six foot gator!
We had a good time regardless –
you just did not look for golf balls as I think snakes are also here!
We enjoyed this course despite the “GATORS”
being a fun course to play.
Lots of fairways and marsh – small lakes – water everywhere!

It came down to the last hole – number 18 !
We had a boggy – long par 5 – missed putt and they pared!
GALS ONE UP AFTER 18
35 to 36!
70 to 71 !!!!!
I told you Jimmy – they are too good!
