Our dogs strollered along with us last year on a day trip, great place to visit, I bag lots of pastries when I can, we always hit the hogs breath, dogs like the food there and me too.
Spyglass, not Pebble is the toughest golf course I have ever played. Those homes surrounding and on Spyglass are awesome.

Clint Eastwood owns the Hogs Breath Inn and the little sculpture shop next door, owned by Malcolm Marand, was featured in Eastwood’s movie “Play Misty for Me”. (My ex-wife was an extra in that movie but that’s another story) Eastwood ran for mayor of Carmel because the city council wouldn’t give him an exception to the sign dimensions authorized by city code. Eastwood won, changed the code & got his larger sign for the Hog’s Breath. True story: I was making an arrest after a traffic stop in front of the H.B. (the guy had an outstanding warrant) and while hand-cuffing the guy I hear a voice behind me say “you need a hand with that?” - I turned around and it was Clint - met a lot of celebrities and hollywood types in Carmel and have too many stories that I shouldn’t tell.
Watched the last 40 laps of the ARCA race last night. Larry McReynolds son won after several hellacious wrecks.
I had a similar experience when the same Cops stopped me for a DUI... 3 times... in the same night. It was after a Christmas Party in 1956.
Someone tell ST that Flash is on the Pole for tomorrow...
That 1st qualifying lap pulled a fast one didn’t it?
Doesn’t mean much at Dega, but fun anyway.
I missed most of the qualifying.
I had it on in the workshop.
Gordon did a low tight lap on #1, everybody else went high and wide.
It worked, he said it was based on the cooling system.
Hard hit by #14...
and I was moving 19 tons of # 9 Compost most of the afternoon...
I dumped a load of rubbish this morning and moved some dirt around. I also caught parts of the race, they had a few red flag delays, air-vac’d a driver.. we’ll see what sunday brings..
and I haven’t checked my points yet.. uhhh.. 6.
You must have cheated!!! I got 1 stinky point, by my C driver no less. unnnnng as my former FRiend used to say.
every driver of mine was in the top 20. a bad omen perhaps..
I could really use a big points day.. I feeel like flipper .. screwpled..
So that is where it all went.
Next: Cup Series race from Talladega
Kyle Busch will try to notch his second consecutive Cup win, as he takes on the field and the game of pack racing at ‘Dega at 1:20 p.m. ET.
