5/7 - Emerald Valley Golf Course

Emerald Valley....not to be confused with the Emerald City, which by the way was not green.

This was an interesting joint. It was once a full golf course until 30 acres were sold off to make a home for some new buildings. So, now it's a driving range with parts of the original course still in tact, but taken over by the Canadians. Canadians as in geese and there goslings (why aren't they called geeselings?).

This I just don't get ~ it was super duper warm in there and the bartender chick had on a turtle neck, a hoodie, jeans....and sandals, which were really cute, but I just don't get the winterization and summer time shoe item combo. Maybe she was going through a transitional phase.

Thankfully, it was not a patio gig because the sky just let loose with rain and wind. It was pretty intense. And of course, Mudcat played "Ridin' the Storm Out"....he's clever like that. As brutal as it was, it still did not keep the smokers from going out to have some puffs. I have no idea how they lit their cigs, much less kept them going. They're a very determined lot.

Jake's new technology loving friend kept Mudcat engaged during our break and he attached himself to Jake's 3 foot perimeter during tear down. I think the guy had quite enough of sitting with his wife and her 3 girlfriends. It started out with him and his wife being a cute little couple, but as the girls filtered in, we could see the will to live start to drain out of him.
