Daddy's Little Golferette

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend and got to spend some quality time with a special dad in your life, whether father, husband, grandfather or brother.I appropriately celebrated the day with a relaxing 9-hole father-daughter round at the politically famed, "too tough for beginners" Andrews Air Force Base. We played the front nine of the West Course.
Some unique features:

• The full course is a par 73 for ladies and 70 for men -- we encountered three par 3s and one par 5
• The presence of the Air Force One hanger in the background
• The chance that Condi Rice will be in the group right behind you.

I definitely enjoyed it and luckily for both of us we didn’t keep score. My elderly father is just getting back in the game after having surgery on his shoulder and I’m still settling into my newly structured swing.I was thrilled to finally see the fairways at Andrews since it’s essentially been my father’s home away from home for years. The day also highlighted one priceless benefit of playing the game: spending time with your father. For years weekends were spent shopping & lunching with my mother, while dad was off golfing, working in the yard or watching a tournament in TV. I finally have something I can share with him.

Did anyone else enjoy some Father’s Day golf activities (how convenient that the US Open was the same day)?
