I like golfing any time, but

golfing is my outlet

during COVID.

Staying at home

and avoiding people

is not my thing.

During the pandemic

it has been suggested

to get out of doors

and exercise.

Golfing does not give

the most exercise, but

it’s fun to to hit a little white ball,

and to enjoy good company

and nature

and maybe some wildlife.
