As you are no doubt aware, this weekend marked the official 3rd Myrtle Beach Blast. To say it was a good time would be an understatement. Ron, as always, put on another perfect weekend, and obviously has an in with some very powerful higher-up, because the weather could not have been better. Despite Myrtle Beach seeing torrential rains, and lot's of localized flooding this past week, this weekend was cool and breezy and the sun was out with little cloud cover. Even Ron's yard was pretty dry, especially compared to some of the yards I saw at his neighbors', leading me to believe that the night before the party, when everyone else was out for night 1 at The Blarney Stone (which I missed) Ron had an industrial NASCAR style track dryer running non stop on his grass. Good job, Ron!!
Seriouly, it couldn't have been a better weekend, and Ron and his wife Brenda put on a great pig pickin', and anyone who has the means really should consider coming for MBB 4 (and all future MBBs, for the record)
As you may or may not know, the festivities traditionally start off with a couple rounds of Mini Golf. Various awards are granted to the various winners. Once again, for the third year in a row, Scott (who I don't believe is a StanFixer) won, leaving many of us (Dave) pretty well ticked off. Duane put in a serious effort, and was only 2 strokes away from Scott's performance, but I hope he'll take on this challenge to train for next year, and finally put that guy DOWN!
Personally, as you probably know, I'm an accomplished golfer. After spending almost no time, and little talent on the ol' links, I impressed all with my lack of talent, and complete and total lack of dedication. This is my first year winning this coveted prize, but I can promise that following the next year of absolute neglect, and complete lack of practice, that NONE will claim this prize from me next year.
Here is my commemorative plaque:
Which I have hung in a place of distinction in my garage:
It was just fabulous, and I can't wait to see everyone again next year. Maybe just MAYBE my car will be running by then. Hey, a fellow can dream, right?
