Wright & Ditson......

 5:24 pm - Saturday - July 16th - Likely, CA - 94° F, humidity 10%, wind 14 mph out of the west......crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 94° F (it actually hit 96° F).  TLE and I spent the morning watching round three of The Open (aka: British Open), and then went into Alturas to do our weekly shopping, so I am late in posting my latest missive.  On this date in 2012 TLE and I were on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington....a view of the Olympic Mountain range.......↴

As we did on Thursday we spent part of the morning watching The Open, and the afternoon watching Le Tour de France (Stage 13).  In between I played the back 9, didn't play that well, but had a good time with TLE. On The Open front Cameron Smith (Australia) finished the day in first place at -13 under par, with Cameron Young and Rory McIlroy not far behind.  In all there are probably 10 players within striking distance of the leaders.

The temp got into the low 90's, so it was not too unpleasant outdoors.  UPS delivered the hickory shafted golf club set on the day they actually promised to do so.....that is a first this summer.....

Left to right: driver, fairway wood, middle distance iron, mashie, niblic, and two putters.  All but the putter on the far right were made by Wright & Ditson of Boston, Mass...they are the St. Andrews edition

....considering that these clubs are around 100 years old, they still look to be in good condition.....not playing condition, mind you, but in pretty good condition, nonetheless.  We are looking forward to formally donating them to the Likely Place Golf and RV Resort Clubhouse so they can be seen, and appreciated for years to come.

Our day went exactly as we planned, and it is wonderful to know that we still have a fourth day off work coming up Saturday!

Thanks for stopping by!
