Join the ladies every Tuesday evening

Warm weather - what a joy! It is so nice to see the sunshine without a ton of wind. Yes, I know wind doesn’t weigh a lot but it does tend to drag down my spirits when it is a cold wind. I even managed to get out in the garden to do some weeding and cleaning up the winter’s debris. But I didn’t work in the yard on Tuesday, May 24, because I don’t like to use up all my energy and not have anything left for golf.
