Sherry’s Shelves 4.5 – 4.11.26 #TheMasters #golf #sports

Posted on by

Hi Everyone. Hubby and I have been working on getting the pool dialed in. We had to put our riding mower into the shop. We have a good mechanic. Last time, it worked for five years and hubby was able to do some minor repairs to keep it running. With the cost (since Covid) for a new one having doubled, I’m glad it won’t cost too much and it’s definitely worth the investment. We’ve been watching The Masters and it brought back some great memories from 2006

Book Details:

Book Title:  18 Golf Poems and A Recollection at the 19th Hole by Ronald Colby
Category:  Adult Non-Fiction,  54 pages
Genre:  Poetry
Publisher:  The Colby Company  
Release date:   2022
Content Rating:  G for everyone.
Reviews for Ron Colby’s novel, Night Driver, published by Rare Bird Literary, (January 2018):
 
“Colby has written a novel of relentless energy. While driving a cab at night, his main character hunts his wife’s killers through LA’s dark streets of dreams and nightmares. It’s tense, episodic, complete, and compelling. It’s quite a ride.” ― Francis Ford Coppola, director of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now

“Colby’s well-paced first novel takes the reader on a winding, exhilarating ride through late-1970s Los Angeles.” ― Publishers Weekly

“Big news: Ron Colby’s Night Driver is a contemporary noir novel that deserves a place next to Chandler, Connolly, and Wambaugh. The story of a man who drives a taxi through the night streets of Los Angeles searching for his wife’s killers makes an exciting, original and hard-to-put-down book. Colby knows his turf, his characters and he gets everything right.” ― Michael Elias, author of The Last Conquistador

Sherry’s Shelves #181 is my weekly update from 1.24.19 – 1.30.19.

Hi Everyone. Hope you had a great week and managed to stay warm at this cold weather hits. The sun may be out here in Florida, but, man oh man, it is chilly. I get goose bumps if there is a slight breeze and it’s under 70. I forgot to look at the grass this morning, but the temp was under 40. Yesterday we had frost, YUK! That’s just wrong

I don’t know if I am having allergy attacks or getting a cold, OH NO. I started last year with a horrible case of the flu, so I am leery of being out and about this time of year. Looks like maybe I wasn’t careful enough, you know, WASH YOUR HANDS, DON’T TOUCH YOUR FACE, type of stuff.

Oh well, such is life…and there is lots of blogging to do. Let me know what your week has been like and I hope you have a good one.

We played golf on Tuesday and this is how I felt.

This is how Mr Wonderful felt.

What you can’t see…I had a car blanket wrapped around my legs too. LOL

And…the Reese’s Senior Bowl is in town so we made a quick stop in Mobile, Alabama. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate and the rain finally moved in. Didn’t bother me. I was so cold, I was over it anyway. LOL Damn this getting older. When I was even 5 years younger, this wouldn’t have stopped me. Now it’ been there, done that, have the T-shirt…and I do have the T-shirt. LOL

How about you? Are you a cold weather lover, or is the steamy tropics for you?

Sherry’s Shelves #160 is my weekly update from June 17 – June 23, 2018.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. This was a great week. I am getting back in the swing of things after being laid up and it feels great. I spent a couple of hours cleaning the pool (and enjoying it, of course). It is now sparkly clean and the flamingo is enjoying it.

Mr Wonderful started the day off with photos of the sunrise, while I lay sleeping. LOL I played some golf and toured the OKeefe Museum in Bilox, Mississippi, where The Blue Dog was being showcased. Picked up some fireworks on the way home.

We have had a visitor, Mr Toad, who seems to like nestling down in the damp soil of this Amyrillis plant. I was going to transplant it, but I will have to wait until he moves on. I like looking out the slider and seeing him hunkered down, hanging out and loving life. The photo isn’t that great, but I didn’t want to disturb him, so I shot it through the slider and screen. If he saw me, he didn’t seem to care.
