Golf the hard way

Trying to find something to do outside the house on a Sunday when most of the country is inside, I checked out a bio food fair, which I knew would at least have free food. A Dutch farmer in the area held an open house complete with cows, sheep and pony rides for the kids.

Besides getting some fresh air, I actually had fun playing “boerengolf”, or farmer’s golf. The wooden club has a Dutch clog on the end, the ball was a children’s one, and the holes are made with play buckets pushed into the ground. The field usually has cattle on it and is difficult to walk on, let alone golf. I did pretty good and it was a lot of fun!
