SkyCaddie 2.5 golf GPS
When I got one for my son, Lance's birthday at the Wichita Golf Headquarters, I decided might as well get one for myself. We got the account set up and downloaded the courses that we expect to play.
The rest was great. We used it get the yardage to the center of the greens at the Cedar Pines Golf Course in Andover, KS. It really kept me focused throughout the round on Sunday afternoon. For the first round ever, I never lost a golf ball and shot 42, which was 9 over par, or bogey golf. I tied with Lance for the first time in our adult lives.
Tomorrow we are supposed to play another harder course with Lance's preacher, Mark Hoover. I am excited about the chance to continue to work on my golf improvements.
The Sunday morning service at New Spring Church was really wonderful. The praise music was pointed and the last song had especially appropriate lyrics for my situation. "When my time on earth is over, I want my life to echo: Great Is The Lord!" I have requested that Lance sing it for my funeral later this year.
The six hours I spent with Ellie and Micah on Saturday were very productive. I transferred to them both my stamp collection and coin collection and helped them get started with some additions to them. They caught on very quickly and kept focused thoughout the afternoon and much of the evening. My sister in Africa has sent many communications throughout her missionary career from such places as Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, and now the Ivory Coast. The stamps have some of the African animals on them. If any of my readers have some cancelled stamps laying around that you haven't discarded while you are looking for someplace to put them to use, please send them to: Ellie Cummins, 12218 Laguna, Wichita, KS 67207, and help this 7-yr-old girl who is homeschooled to increase her knowledge of the world and the United States through the subjects depicted on the stamps. She would appreciate your explaining any of the subjects as to the history of the one being honored, or the reason why you think the US government authorized the stamp with the subject on it.
