Golfing with the Geese!


To celebrate summer's arrival Lyden, Andy and I went golfing at our local 9 hole par 3 course ... neither of us did very well at the game but we enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. As you can see, we shared the course with a bunch of Canadian Geese and their babies who pretty much ignored us the entire time.

These photos were taken by Tyler (or Rachel) on a walk Andy led us on one day, just a short distance from Keresley Village where Andy grew up. He and his mates would often go up to "Corley Woods" to hang out or fish in the local pond (now dried up). In the first photo I am standing by the face, not as scary coming down as it is coming up the lane as shown in the 2nd photo! Andy told us how he and his friends would often speed down the hill past the witch on their bikes, faster than usual when dusk fell! You don't have to be a young lad with an active imagination to understand why!
