Golf Tourney Trouble


Song of the day, “Feeling a Moment” by Feeder. Listen…

Ok, so I have been a huge slacker on here. Lay off, it has been snowing and unless I am in the mountains skiing, there is no room for snow in my life. I am a tropical brotha. So what happened in the last few weeks? Well, several things that I will write about this week but today we will focus on the first one: The Hughes Family Golf Tournament.

There was high sports drama as the back to back winners from the last 2 years were de-throned and a new pair of champs were crowned. That’s right, there finally gets to be some other names affixed to the prize besides “John and Celia”. How did it happen? Well there might have been a little foolishness on my part which let to the final score. It seems that I was rather impressed with myself after last year’s victory and while the family was vacationing in La Jolla, CA at the Hilton Torrey Pines, I vowed that I would not pick up a golf club after that day until the next family tournament and Celia and I would still win. Well, after 9 holes, we were down by 7 strokes. And while we won the back 9 by 3, it wasn’t enough to make up for our deficit. Takeaways: Don’t write checks with your mouth that your golf game can’t cash.
Either way, it was a blast and congrats to Sam and Josh for taking the prize. Looks like the trophy gets to live in Houston for a year, but it will be back in Dallas where it belongs soon…

Laters,
