Carol Williams   I've been playing since 6/22 and walking as well. So, all is almost back to normal except I am into early spring golf when all others are in full summer mode.

Good morning, Kat Palmiotti 
What fun do you and Anthony have planned for this weekend. It looks like your temperatures are a little less intense than ours.

Good morning Carol Williams - it's been in the mid 90s for weeks, which is hot for here but at least we're not at 100 yet! As for this weekend, yesterday we worked at the Farmer's Market for half the day and last night we hosted our cooking club at our house for a Hawaiian Luau! I hope today is a quiet one.

Carol Williams

Good morning Kat Palmiotti 
I bet you and Anthony ARE looking forward to a low-key day! A Luau sounds fun. I'd be curious how your cooking club works. Does everyone bring something for the theme?

Carol Williams - I just decided to write a post about it! Stay tuned!

Hi Roy Kelley 
That sounds perfect for golf. We're in the 100's, so no golf for me this weekend.

Thanks as always for putting this list together. I have some reading to do.

Are you golfing this weekend or is it too hot?

You're welcome, Jeff Dowler, CRS 
No golf this week-end, but I did golf Thursday only because it was a tournament. Thankfully, we were one of the lead groups and got in right at 4 hours. The last groups were out another hour! Ugh. It's supposed to cool off a bit by the latter part of this coming week. I'm looking forward to getting in your area for some milder temperatures.... and to see you, of course!

I'm looking forward to it Carol Williams .
