Jer & I were riding around on the golf cart at Jim & Rhonda's cottage today. The golf cart reminded me of the one at Sandy Pines that we had to push up hills because it was so weak! I started telling Jer about some of our awesome adventures on that dumb golf cart.
I started on about pushing it up hills, getting lost, and then about the time when Bryan, Chad & I were on it and the thing started on fire!!
Anyway, it led me to the memory of dad on the golf cart. I wasn't with him, so if any of you were, then maybe you can elaborate for us. I remember that dad was driving along on the golf cart and suddenly the steering wheel fell off, causing dad to lose control and hit a tree. I can just picture his reaction. It must have been priceless!!!
Oh yeah! That was me and dad. The steering wheel didn't actually fall of but a linkage in the steering broke and we lost all control of steering the golf cart. I was pretty young so I don't remember a lot of the details but I do remember it was a good laugh.
ReplyDeleteI love reading these memories of Uncle Rick! I think everyone has a good golf cart story from Sandy Pines! Nesa and I hit a boy in the face once and got in BIG trouble with the rangers and another time I drove it down into the bushes that spelled "Sandy Pines" and again, got in big trouble. I remember running all the way back to the trailer and my dad was so mad at me, but Uncle Rick was snickering...probably saying that PG-13 saying under this breath! :)
