May 8-9, 2010

The title is a bit misleading, because I didn’t do anything this weekend related to Mother’s Day… but nevertheless, it was still Mother’s Day.  The weekend started off with a visit from my old friend Chan.  He had a corporate party in SF so I got to catch dinner and some drinks with him.  Steve hosted a BBQ on Saturday, and it turned out to be a little more beer happy than I had anticipated.  The food btw, was amazingly good.

Steve the cook

Galbi.  Good.

Before food, there was beer pong.  And I must say, these two kicked my butt over, and over, and over again.  It was really sad.  But we won the first and last games (of maybe 7 or 8 games).  Psych study shows people remember first and last most anyway…

Team winner!

Then we all passed out.  Lots of food + lots of beer = sleep.  Then I woke up to see my Red Wings get eliminated by the stupid Sharks.  GUH.  It’s okay boys, we’ll get them next year.  Thanks again for hosting the BBQ Steve & friends.

Sunday consisted of the usual football & golf.  Except I played the best 18 rounds of my life… so far.  +10 over on the front 9, +10 in the back.

The field is location in Presidio, beautiful SF scenery overlooking the bay on one side…

and the GG bridge on the other.

It was a beautiful day at Tilden Park GC in Berkeley.

The course was wide open, I don’t think we waited once…. meaning we must golf every Mother’s Day.

Ah~ and the sound of the water in flowing through the creek was so soothing! Of course, I doubt it would be as soothing if it was swallowing up my golf balls, but not today ^.^

Personal best, hehe.

My mom’s response to my picture text to her saying “Happy Mothers Day! I’m golfing!”

Crossing back over to the city.

Couldn’t be with mom today, but I still sent her flowers! Yay for recessions, flowers this year were basically half off from the previous few years! Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms ^.^
