Espola's newest neighborhood

Things got even tougher for my wife today. Delta Airlines, out of respect for the millions of miles she has flown with them, had rescheduled her Friday flight to Monday without additional charge (but only after confirming my situation with the hospital). However, due to an air-traffic-control situation in Seattle, she was going to be delayed getting to Honolulu and would have missed today's connection across the Pacific - and didn't tell her about the misconnection until she was checking in at San Diego Airport. She told them she would rather sleep in her own bed at home than in an airport hotel, so they rescheduled her again for tomorrow.

Sitting out on the patio a few minutes ago, sipping orange juice and reading, ironically, Orange Empire, a book about the history of the California orange industry, I saw a ball hit the pepper tree at the edge of the cart path and drop down into the ice plant below. I helped the golfer look for his lost ball - we found 4. He played his and gave me the rest.

He played it from the ice plant? That's a tough go.

Hope he took a penalty stroke, cuz if you don't play by the rules it's not a game . . . it's just playing "I win". Cheaters only cheat themselves.

I don't pay much attention to the details of golfers who play out here, but I know for certain that some of them hit multiple balls off the tee and abandon the ones they don't like. I don't know if they take penalty strokes, but I'm sure their partners/opponents are ok with whatever happens or they wouldn't go out again.

Some of the rules of golf are bullshit anyway - anyone remember this?

Like I tell anyone who asks if this or that is OK with me on the course I tell them they paid their fees they do as they wish as long as they keep up. If they wanna drop one next to the cup, tap it in and call it a one I don't care.
