For friends, family and the random search engine visitor. This blog started as an experiment in mobile blogging from my Palm TREO 600, 700, Prē, HTC Evo, Samsung 5, Pixel 3, Pixel 6 Pro. Now it serves as a simple repository of favorite activities. Expect bad golf, good fishing, great sailing, eating, drinking, adventure travel, occasional politics and anything else I find interesting along the way including, but not limited to, any of the labels listed here...

Other Bob insisted that I post this picture of the single ball and tee he played with for the entire round. Whatever.
Last outing I had a good front nine and a terrible back. This week I had terrible front nine and a good back. Next time I'll put both halves together. I just don't know if it will be good or bad.

At least I did not have to quit the game after this round.
After playing this course for more than 20 years, we finally saw what we think is a juvenile California red-legged frog! Could be wrong. Might be some other species of frog.
Most amazing is where we found him. This critter hitched a ride on Rick's pull cart back to the parking lot after the round. Being the good responsible golfers we are, Rick escorted our little friend back to Laguna Salada.
Where he will probably be eaten by a San Francisco Garter Snake.
Between the 13th fairway and 12th green. This open water channel connecting Laguna Salada and Horse Stable Pond will dramatically improve the habitat for the California Red Leg Frog that lives here. It was completed despite the efforts of some misguided souls who hate the golf course more than they want to help the frog. You know who you are.
BTW - Owen joined us at the turn after things were backing up in the canyon.
In case you have not heard, Superbowl 50 will be played today at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, new home of the Silicon Valley Vultures, recently relocated from San Francisco.
Despite the game being played in Santa Clara, almost all of the celebrations are taking place in San Francisco. This includes "Superbowl City" - a large corporate park that required closing several blocks of city streets and public transportation for several weeks. It also included a variety of large Superbowl 50 sculptures that were strategically erected at scenic sites all over the City. And immediately vandalized. Because San Francisco.
I had no intention of visiting Superbowl City, despite the allure of $8 Bud Lights. However, we did enjoy watching Superbowl inspired Friday night fireworks over Coit Tower.
Finally, as per usual, I am determined to make a Superbowl Prediction:
Denver Broncos 24 - Carolina Panthers 23
I am making this selection because "Defense Wins Championships." and because "The Old Guy".
Before anyone makes any investment decisions based on these predictions, you should know that your mileage may vary, you should see a doctor if your erection lasts more than four hours, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
In this case, Denver's only hope is if my prediction directly contradicts priorresults. As motivation I will continue to post the above 2014 wager shaming photo until I actually get a Superbowl prediction right. I have to revert to the mean eventually. Right? Right?
