MLK Day 2020

The wind blew today, but it was not cold.  The day while not hot, was certainly pleasant.
  Marg started laundry this morning thinking she had lots of time to get it done.  I went out on the back patio and washed my golf clubs.  The grooves in the irons get lots of grit and dirt in them that I need to clean out once in a while.  I use a small brush with bronze bristles and it doesn't harm the face of the club while doing a great job.  After that I cleaned the truck using the shop vac. 
  Marg made a nice breakfast of ham and eggs.  She decided I needed to be well fed given the hour I was leaving to play golf.  We just got done eating when a car with 3 ladies pulled up.  They had scheduled to go out for pedicures today.  I guess it was a success except the girl doing the pedicure for one of the ladies forgot to turn the water off in time to prevent it overflowing.  The resulting flood caused quite a stir and disruption.  The gal got rattled so it was not the positive experience they expected.  Each of the ladies picked a different color, Marg has bright red toenails tonight.  More importantly Marg has lots of problems with ingrown nails on her big toes, so she needs to do it as a preventative measure.
  I left for golf, picking up two fellows in the park.  We went in to Phoenix to play Encanto for 18 holes.  Traffic for me was very light on the way to golf, so travel speed was about 70 mph.  We got there a bit early, but Gerry who lives 10 minutes away was late arriving, in fact we were called to the tee when he drove in the parking lot.  The weather was great for golf so I wore my zip off pants and made them into shorts about half way through the first nine.  The course was in good shape and play moved along quite well for the first nine.  The foursome in front of us were pretty good players, but they were having quite a good time.  By the second nine the alcohol seemed to affect their play as they were spraying the ball and spending a lot of time looking for balls with poor success finding them.  The result was waiting on the tee box a bit so it took us about 4 1/2 hours to play the round.
  In the meantime, back at the home place.  Marg had to finish up the laundry.  While doing this she had some visitors that compounded her time pressures on a meeting she had to attend.  When she left for the meeting she grabbed some keys and headed down for her meeting.  When she arrived back at our place, she discovered she was locked out with no house key.  Fortunately we had left a full set of keys at the office here and the manager was in.  Other than a little kidding from the park manager, it all worked out fine, just took some time.  Knowing my return time was uncertain, she made a nice chicken dish in the slow cooker.  Our purchasers had relatives in town and brought them to the happy hour across the road they attend.  When Marg saw them, she offered them an opportunity to look at the place, which they accepted.  Apparently they were quite pleased with what they saw and expressed their appreciation for both having the opportunity to see it and for the couple having been given and opportunity to buy it.  Nice to hear that kind of thing.
  Traffic coming home was light.  One of the fellows has gone to this course with me several times, but for the other it was his first time.  He said they don't go this far west because of traffic, but my other passenger clarified that this was very light traffic for that area.  In fact we made it home in about 30 minutes as we were mostly at the speed limit only slowing down for a couple of busy sections.
  Arriving home the slow cooker meal aroma really got my appetite going and supper was delicious.
