Yesterday I played in the last leg of the regional Senior Men’s Ryder Cup competition. We did not have a chance to win, but had a chance to finish second. All four of our parings need to win their matches and preferable sweep all 24 points. This was a tall order and we were not successful. However, the golfing friends we made was excellent and I am already looking forward to next year.

Happy Canada Day in 2021
The first of July is special to all Canadians because it is Canada’s Birthday. After the last crazy 16 months, I for one am looking forward to a new normal without the fear of COVID!
Canada is 153 years young! As a Canadian, I have so much to be grateful for; I believe that Canada offers more to its citizens than any country in the world. We are not the biggest, richest, nor most influential, but in my opinion, we are the best! After spending 36 years of my life protecting this great country, I still marvel at its majestic and pristine beauty.
Happy Canada Day!
I am a grateful Canadian!

I started off mediocre and finished a bit stronger than the beginning. So, why do I think I scored well by played weak golf? Let me tell you.

Yesterday my 2021 golf season started anew. After 6 weeks of a delay, we were finally able to hit the links. The course was full all day, but you would never know it by how professionally the staff managed the tee time flow and how players respected the social distancing rules. The day was over cast, warm, and breezy; in other words it was the perfect day to resume golfing. Since yesterday felt like our first day on the links in 2021, I focused on one thing and one thing only: having fun.
