Tuesday, guess what ?? Yep, rain again! By afternoon it seemed to clear up. Richard found a golf course online that was about 77miles away in De Funiak, Fl that offered a good rate..We called to be sure it was opened, not affected by all the rain and we decided to give it a go. It wasn't the greatest golf course, not clearly marked. We went the wrong way twice. We golfed what we thought was hole 3 but turned out it was hole 12!! But to our credit some other golfers told us they made the same mistake the first time they golfed there. It was the worse course we have ever played on, not kept up very well, and it was a country club! When we got to hole 7 we heard thunder & saw lightning. We set off for our car and just made it in time, it down poured! It stormed all the way back to our Çampground and all night.
Wednesday morning it finally was clear, the sun actually peeked out. Richard made breakfast outside on the griddle, eggs & sausage. It wasn't exactly a beach day though. So we decided to golf at a course we played on last year which was only about 40 min away. It's a nice small 9 hole course., par 29. Richard got 41.... Which is pretty good considering we are novices. I did 58 which is good for me. The weather turned really humid, so we thought we would go to the beach when we got back. But of course as we were driving back...... You got it.... It started to rain, but not storm. So we stopped at a couple of little boutiques I had seen along the way. Richard just loves browsing these little shops ( that's a joke) but he realizes it is my vacation too, so he "grins & bears" it. Maybe tomorrow we can get to the beach.
