Sudden Valley


This years RWI was held at Monterey North (Bellingham). Welcome new member Frank Chin.



Round 1 Sudden Valley, Pink Ball

For the first time in several years, Calvin didn't loose the pink ball and the Class of 70 brought the pink ball home for a first round victory. Benny & the Jets finished second, making it to 15, and the Class of 71 lost their ball on 9.


Class of 71 teeing off.




Dinner was at the Skagit Casino buffet. It's a good thing crabs have lots of legs, or there would be a lot more dead crabs. The highlight of the trip was Norm going for a ride with a hot roll.


Round 2 Shuksan, Black v Red


The Red team (Calvin, Benny, Dicky, Norm & Dale) kicked the Black teams (Ronnie, Frank, Edmon, Dionnie, Jack) butt 33 to 15.


Dinner was at the Chuckanut Brewery, paid by Norm whose pockets were bulging with the previous nights winnings. We had a little fun with the waitress. Benny asked if anyone ever told her she looked like Minnie Drive, said no, but that people say she looks like Scarlett Johansson. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1631685888/nm0424060


Round 3 Lake Padden, Scramble/Best Ball

The team lead by Super Senior Frank, Dale, Edmon and Norm won the last event with a score of 117. Coming in second was Benny, Calvin & Jack with 123. Pulling up the rear was Ronnie, Dionnie & Richard with 127. (Not to be making excuses, but don't you think that the teams with only 3 people were at a disadvantage in the 2 man best ball?) After eating too much heavy food & drinking the previous days, we had a dry lunch at Pho 99.

Norm had his version of the guess guesser and Jack beat both of his bets by beating Frank and Richard (or course Frank had to give him 7 strokes and Richard had to play 9 holes vs. Jack's 6)


Competitive Eating: Ronnie

Ruben and Brautwurst for dinner, "Extra" large bowl of Pho for lunch


Biggest Toy: Dionnie

Dirty Old Man: Benny

Flirted with the waitress but couldn't get her to crack a smile


Lightweight: Dale

Couldn't drink in the evening because of too much on the course
