So I didn't understand the golf stuff.
Was what Alice was saying about Glen good?
It appears summer has finally arrived in the northeast. Sweatin’ with the oldies!
Damn you Rude! You put the jinx on!
Glen was probably single digit in his golfing prime (He could break 80 regularly). Alice was amazed by his short game - short shots near or around the green.So I didn't understand the golf stuff.
When he had the Glen Campbell LA Open at Riviera, he would often play in cowboy boots w/ golf spikes in them. I have one of these Jim Beam decanters from that tournament. I think it's cool how the guitar turns into a golf bag.
