We almost made it but could only get in 13 holes before we were forced to turn on the golf car headlights to find the golf balls. We gave a whole new meaning to twilight golf!!  But, a good time was had by all! There were even a few pars made but no new members of the Gilchrist Birdie Club. Mike was presented with his "Birdie" pin by the Mayor to the appreciation of all who were present.
After winding our way through the golf course in the dark, the Mayor finally had to tell Mike that no, we could not cut through peoples yards to get back to the main road. As a result of this bad decision, we arrived at Bonifay Country Club for some much needed liquid nourishment only to find that the establishment closed at 9:00 (it was 9:01).  The group then adjourned to the Mayors Residence for refreshments. 
Next time we play twilight, we have to get some of the glow balls so we can play at least one more hole after dark!!!  |
As testimony to the events of last evening I hereby attach visible (barely as the sun disappeared long ago) evidence that 'glow balls' may be a great niche market for the Gilchrist folk. Or maybe I'll have to get some of those Night Vision Goggles.. His honor The Mayor failed to announce the downing of the last drop of his infamous Bonnie Sir Johnny.
