ALMOST DONE

I made some big strides last night on the course and finished the entire layout as well as 6 of the 9 holes.  I'm waiting for the obstacles to get here to finish the last three.  Mom has been hyping up a "huge surprise" for you when you get home.  You called me last night and said "I know it's two more days before I come home but I wish it was only one.  You know why?  Because I can't wait for my huge surprise"  I hope it's not a big let down.

Anyway, two nights ago, I ordered Chinese food to be delivered and I was working on the course in the garage and the delivery guy played the first three holes and said it was cool but the holes were too hard.  So I made some changes to make the course a little easier to play.  Of course this got me thinking, so I ordered Pizza last night to see if he could beat the Chinese delivery guys score....he played the 6 holes and did much better and I was able to make some tweaks.  Also, some of the kids from the neighborhood came over but I wouldn't let them play because I wanted you to be the first kid to play it.

Boy: what are you doing sir?
Me: making a golf course
Boy: why?
Me:  Dylan is out of town and I wanted to surprise him when he gets back
Boy:  Is it his birthday or something?
Me: No, just thought he would like it
Boy: (staring at the course)  will you be my daddy?


Ok, here is a sneak peak of two of the holes:


This is hole #1, nothing too difficult but you gotta hit is straight or you're in trouble!


This is hole #3, DA RAMP!!

I have added rubber mats with the hole numbers on them since these pictures were taken but that's the gist of what's left.  Can't wait for you to play it!!
