Good morning from Collegeville,
The 24th annual Hagstrom/Osberg golf tournament took place last Saturday. The “Ming” foursome won again. That would be Cousin Kevin, Brother Brian and his wife Jean Marie plus yours truly. The pitching wedge and putter that I inherited from Uncle Bill were good karma as I had hoped. I did completely miss the tee off swing on the first hole, but my second swing connected and I was out there quite a ways but the hook or slice (to the right) was there as usual. This is a best ball tournament, so my approach shot was the one closest to the pin. (Not bad for someone that plays twice a year). Cousin Kevin sank a 40 foot putt and we were one under on the first hole. We went on to make three more birdies. The pot-luck at Brother Bill’s house was wonderful. The trophy will be on our mantle for part of the year.
The show this week is a summertime mix of three previous shows recorded in Ohio. Special guests include Sam Bush, Buddy Emmons and tenor Mark Thomsen, along with the usual cast of characters. Join them for a whirlwind review of performances from the Buckeye State. For details on the summer Rhubarb Tour go to www.prairiehome.org
