holy hail

So as some of you may know, I've recently been highly intrigued by the game of golf. It's a lot like surfing... you either love it or you hate it. It's really expensive, you wear funny clothes, and a good game is as inconsistent as hail in San Diego. When you're on, you're ON and it's a great feeling, but it just doesn't happen that often unless you're Tiger Woods (guilty until proven innocent).

Thanksgiving weekend my brother and I had a game reserved with some good friends at a wonderful hidden course in Deluz/Temecula area called Cross Creek. We started off and had a great front 9. Stopped inside for a lunch break and when we started the back 9, we noticed some black clouds above. Hole 10 is nice, hole 11 it starts to drizzle. That drizzle turns into a nice down pour, and that heavy rain soon starts to freeze. Then comes the lightning, which apparently makes great company for standing on a golf course soaking wet holding a metal rod. Long story short, if you ever get the chance to play golf at Cross Creek please by all means take it! It's the best course I've ever been on. Just check the weather before you go. - shoots
