The other roommate of Chris and Kristin, Frenchie (think Clyde, "Are you for scuba?") has a car and the three guys went to a nearby golf course for a free round of golf….compliments of the Door County guys who work there. It wasn't a nice course by any stretch but it was still fun to get out and play. I also made it a goal to play at least 9 holes in each country I visit. Whether that is feasible is hard to say. The highlight of the round wasn't watching Frenchie play golf, but rather standing on the 13th tee box as two birds attacked us. Apparently they had a nest just above the men's tee box and we were obviously a threat to them. Judy Hurlburt (my aunt) you would have literally had a stroke. These things were mean looking, they gave a few warning dives and then once they figured we weren't leaving, they flew straight at our heads only to turn at the last possible second. To make matters worse, the tee box was on a little island and our golf carts were about 50 yards away down the fairway. The three of us decided to use our drivers as weapons and while one person teed off, the other two swung their clubs frantically to fend off the diving birds. Had this 10 minute ordeal been video taped, I am certain it would have made America's Funniest Videos.
