Oh what a beautiful day to ride. Nicest day this year, so far. I headed north this morning up to my favorite back roads in my old stomping ground, doing my best to stay away from the mainstream traffic. I was slowing down for a stop sign in the middle of nowhere when a golf ball when sailing by between my face shield and the windshield. Looked to my left, in the direction it came from and yup, there was a golf course. I think maybe the golfer may have been aiming for the stop sign because it landed right at the base. I bent down, picked it up, put it in my pocket and motored on. The road turned out to be a dead end, so I swung around and headed back past the golf course. As I was passing the course I looked for a possible tee that it may have come from and sure enough there were a group and one was waving at me. Did he expect me to stop and return his ball ? Not ! I did wave back though. A couple hours later I was headed down a divided highway on my way home, it was rush hour and the traffic was pretty dense. I was in the left lane doing maybe 55 when a round shiny chrome object came sailing over the guard rail on the left. Holy bovine excrement (thanks Pterodactyl) it was a trailer ball ! Needless to say, I didn't stop to pick it up. It's one thing to be on the lookout for crazy cagers on their cell phone, but now I have to look out for balls ?

A 2 ball day ... there's a really bad joke in there ...

I think you should play the lottery this week Alan. Close calls.

How about 46532255 for 8 numbers or 87245382255 for 11 numbers ?

That is wild

If you hear someone rummaging around in your garage, don't panic, it will be that golfer looking for a drop.

Cheers

That gives a whole new meaning to 'having a ball'.
