About a year ago, I was playing at my local pitch-and-putt and my ladybug bag tag from Ko’Olina golf course fell off sometime during the round. Yes, it’s just a silly piece of plastic but I really liked it and was disappointed that it was gone. I figured I’d never see it again.
Recently, I was playing that same course and saw something hanging on the golf ball washer on one of the holes. There it was, my darling little ladybug! Of course, I assumed it was mine and recovered it for its new home on my sweet Birdie Girl orange stand bag.
Thank you, anonymous golfer, for rescuing my ladybug.
He’s a little scuffed and bruised, and I think my world-weary ladybug deserves a name after spending a year either on this course or who knows where. I don’t know why Elmer comes to mind but I don’t think it’s appropriate. The name of the nine-hole golf course is Sinaloa, so maybe it should have something to do with that. I found him at the 7th hole, named “Hillside.” Seven of Nine? Sinside? Hilloa? Any ideas?
I love simple designs and for some reason this ladybug just tickles me. Maybe it’s the tee down the middle of his back. Tee-hee!

Good to see you back blogging..

I see that Sinola pitch and putt may be converted to a Water park

Scott, was I gone?
Mark,
I don’t think the plan is a conversion, but removal of the driving range, an addition of a water park as well as three 18-hole mini-golf courses and concession and picnic areas and a renovation of the existing course.

Does anyone know where I can get a little lady bug stroke counter that clips onto a golf glove?
Thanks,
Roni

I, too, am trying to find a ladybug stroke counter that Roni described.
Thanks!
