Thought I've everything....

For the last two years, the people staying in the property next to ours in August have made this strange noise -- starts early and goes on throughout the day. A series of loud PINGs! It drives you nuts after a while...and causes the dogs to bark a lot.

Anyway, I was doing a little dive along the shore at about 20 feet when when I came across a group of golf balls. And then more. It then occurred to me that the noise I was hearing was someone driving balls into the lake -- but the noise didn't sound like a driver (even the newer metal drivers).

Then, one day while working in the woods between the houses, I heard the noise and saw two guys hitting golf balls with ALUMINUM BASEBALL BATS. PING! PING! PING! Each followed by a splash way out where I was diving.

My daughter realized that they might be hitting a few bad shots and snorkeled over in the shallower area close to shore. She returned with 16 golf balls stuffed down her bathing suit.

I think that this is the same crew that spent two weeks firing a potatoe gun into the lake a few years ago.

Whatever blows your hair back, I guess...
