It was great to have three foursomes for the first time all year; 10 people golfed at Blue Ash Tuesday night. It was hot and sunny when we got there - the kind of night I walk from one patch of shade to another. Rhoda, Jodi, and Dutchess were in the first group; Minky, Daisy, Chris and I in the second and Margie, Karyn, and the Drake in the last group. They did a good job getting us off the tee for open play but as the night went on, we began to hear thunder in the distance and the skies got dark and grey by 8:15 pm.
Having experienced the thunderstorms we had Monday night, Mary Anne and I hung it up on 7 tee and drove her cart back to the parking lot. I think others continued to golf but she went back in the cart and ferried folks in. I thought they would have sounded the siren if a storm were coming but Minky reminded me that when she went back to get her rain check last Tues, everyone was gone and the doors were locked by 7:30 pm, so maybe they weren't even there.
Kept the ball closer to the fairways and had a great long putt on the first hole. Others in my foursome had some nice long putts as well; we were Putting Princesses and "tiara worthy."
The best part was getting another 2 hours or so of walking in, dragging my pull cart. I was tired and missed my Wed am walk but Margie met me after work and we circled Sharon Woods lake for an hour last night. Beautiful weather!
This morning Rhoda and I walked her dog Wiley for 45 minutes and then I stood for 3 hours doing a plein air painting in downtown Mason.
Will post the good upcoming hikes tomorrow. If it doesn't rain, Loveland Bike Trail at 8 am Friday.

Forgot to say where we ate dinner; InCahoots and boy was it good! Half-priced bottles of wine on Tuesday nights and the asparagus fries were unique and memorable, including the dipping sauce.
