Description
This was taken on our local golf course on a day when I was on a photo shoot. Notice the tripod in the card, and camera on the ready. Was I surprised when I approached hole no. 4, and found my highway to heaven had been flooded. Now, What? First and most importantly, capture the moment in time. Take shot, and then put on waders or just storm through the lake. Lifting my feet above the waterway, with camera in lap, and hanging on for dear life, I slowly and carefully maneuvered through this water Hazard, and was actually able to capture a par on this hole! What an experience!

It worked out well as we just used a trolling motor on the cart and used floating golf balls the rest of the day. Thank you very much for visiting my galleries and commenting on this shot, as I truly appreciate your time and support for my work, the work of our fine group of artists in the WFS group, and to all artists of FAA. It is truly appreciated, and welcomed! Forever, Elvis

Thanks much Nava, as it was still a fun outing! Hard golfing with an "inner tube" around your waist though! LOL

Thanks Laurie, and what I did was lift up my feet, sloughed through the large puddle, "small lake", and used a 3 wood from there to par the hole. Probably 1st and last time. LOL Sure was a fun day, taking photo shots of other golfers trying to negotiate this deluged lowland of water though!

Actually, it was fun to attack this "puddle" and not knowing for sure how deep it was, I did hold my feet up on the seat. It was fun though. Thanks for your visit and insightful and humorous comment, as we all need that from time to time. Have a great day, Kristin!
Kristin Elmquist
lol, Randy! Go for it and do some ol' fashioned what they call "muddin'" here. Fun shot. :)

Think you have an idea, Steve, as I will remember to put my WHAT club in my bag next spring, just in case! LOL And, I may purchase the When club, and maybe even pick up a Why and How club, if the price is right! Thanks for today's humor, as It made my day!
Steve Harrington
The What iron is really versatile. You should have used a When on the next hole, I think. :)

Thanks much, Steve! Love your keen sense of humor, which I many times try to instill in my works and comments. AS, I believe humor is the best medicine for many problems in life. I appreciate your visit, viewing, and your comment, and believe it or not, Steve, I did go with the WHAT! Didn't even get wet, and I pared the hole. Won't talk about next hole though! LOL
