NATIONAL CRANBERRY RELISH DAY
Another seasonal holiday staple graces the table each year and National Cranberry Relish Day makes sure you’re prepared. For Thanksgiving Day make sure you’re stocked and ready. Ocean Spray cranberries are currently on sale at Fred Meyer. Plymouth once had a Cranbrook model (Surferino’s first car). One wonders if the Cranbrook flowed into a cranberry bog. Hmmmm.....
Not to be forgotten, today is the 56th anniversary of JFK’s assassination. For an interesting take on the sequence of events leading to the assassination listen to
Mr. Wicket, Sticky Wicket, Surferino and Wick O’Shay convened at Mar-A-Lawno for a 1 p.m. tee off on a cold but clear autumn day. Heavy dew glistened on the long deep green grass on which the traditional course was laid out. Engaging treats were provided at the prefunq. Two rounds were played.
Surferino won both rounds. His killing spree to end the second round was masterful. It was occasioned by Wick’s missing a medium distance kill shot leaving Surferino in excellent position.
The SOD was Mr Wicket’s roquet on Surferino at the fifth wicket. From a lengthy distance, Mr. Wicket sent his ball backwards through the wicket bouncing on top of Surferino’s ball.
Surprisingly, no goofs, flubs or brain farts occurred during play. Perhaps the tasteful music, engaging treats and cold concentrated the minds of the players. It would not be fair to say that Lefty’s absence was also a reason.
Long live the Cowabungas!
