I had a blast on Wednesday golfing!  It was the 8th Annual Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Tournament...and my 3rd time golfing in it.  2 years ago my Mother-in-Law was diagnosed with breast cancer at the same time that I just got back into golfing. So I played the tourney for her.  That year I won "best dressed in pink".  I know I am not going to win for best golf played, although my team shot a low 78 this year!  Last year I took second for best dressed...this year I was back with a vengeance.  

I cut the crotch off of some little girls tights and wore them as leggings.  Found a shirt to match and bought some pink hair-dye spray, said a prayer that it would come out and hit the course.  Some people were surprised by my look, but not many were all that shocked that I would do something like this.  We ended up having over 50 golfers and raised over $2,000.   Not bad hey?
My teammates were: Bea, Wanda and Carol.  We hit the front nine hard and shot a 38.  We were hot and tired so we grabbed a drink and hit the back nine and fell apart!  Shot a 40.  And if you are not familiar with our course, the back nine is easier and has a lower par.  But when we teed off on the first hole we said we weren't here to win, we were here to have a great time, laugh and raise money.  And we accomplished all of the above.

Another team: Marcia, Punky, Sharon, (Survivors) Terri and Marlene.  Punky and Martha do a great job organizing this event and it gets bigger and better every year.
