long drive contest

headed up to LI yesterday for a round of golf- 6 1/2 hr round trip for a 5 hour round. the outing was planned a month ago, when we figured the conditions would be more spring-like. turned out to be cold (high- 42 degrees) and windy (gusts to 25+ mph), but thankfully clear and dry.

despite the less-than-optimal playing conditions, was well worth the long trip. great catching up with old friends, one of whom i've been playing with for about 20 years. and no matter what the weather is or how i play (was another round of flashes of brilliance scattered amongst a baseline of inconsistency), when playing with 3 other great friends, golf is the greatest sport in the world.
