JIM AND LOLA MARSHALL, GOOD KMAQ LISTENERS (LOLA BIG GEORGE STRAIT FAN)
WILL CELEBRATE THEIR 45TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY THIS SATURDAY
AT THE EAGLES. THEIR ACTUAL WEDDING DATE IS AUGUST 14TH.
PLAYED GOLF WITH MY BROTHER CHUCK (FROM MILWAUKEE) YESTERDAY, AND JAKE BICKFORD.....AT COUNTRY CLUB. MY FIRST GOLF IN TWO YEARS.
BROTHER (HE'S 61) SHOT A 38, JAKE IN THE LOW 40'S. THEY DID WELL.
I SHOT MY AGE (IN 9 HOLES). I AM SOOOO BAD AT GOLF....GUESS THAT'S WHY I DON'T LIKE PLAYING THE GAME AT ALL. BUT HAD FUN FOR A COUPLE HOURS ANYWAY.....AND AS THEY SAY...IT BEATS WORK. CHUCK WENT BACK THIS MORNING. HE WORKS FOR THE MILWAUKEE SCHOOL SYSTEM AND FOR PIZZA HUT.
GREEN FEES AND CART RENTAL FOR THE TWO OF US WAS $45. JAKE IS A MEMBER OF THE CLUB. PLAYING GOLF NOT CHEAP. A MOVIE FOR TWO AT THE VOY THEATRE IS $13.....ALSO FOR TWO HOURS OF ENTERTAINMENT. LOTS OF GOLF COURSES ARE NOT DOING WELL. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MAQUOKETA'S "PRAIRIE CREEK" PUBLIC COURSE, BUT I DO KNOW THE MAQUOKETA COUNTRY CLUB PRIVATE COURSE COULD USE SOME EXTRA MEMBERS.
SEE SOME OF YOU AT THE FAIR.
