My son<\/strong><\/span> Teddy had a birthday party at Putt-Putt on Northfield Road. This was in 1990.\u00a0 I think that’s the last time I played Putt-Putt — official Putt-Putt. There are only 49 Putt-Putt courses left in the United States.<\/p>\n

There was a Chinese miniature golf course on Libby Road at Broadway Avenue in Cleveland. (I think that’s where it was.)\u00a0 It had a Buddha that went up and down.\u00a0\u00a0 My high school friends and I couldn\u2019t get enough of that course.<\/p>\n

Arnold Palmer Miniature Golf<\/em>\u00a0 . . .\u00a0 Just had to say that.<\/p>\n

I<\/strong><\/span> would<\/strong><\/span> like to live long enough to play Putt-Putt with my grandchildren.\u00a0 (First, I need the grandchildren.)\u00a0 I want to stay healthy enough to bend down and pick up the ball.\u00a0 That’s the hardest part of mini golf.<\/p>\n

Adventure golf, such as Pirate\u2019s Cove, sounds good.<\/p>\n
