Abstract

Pam and I took Tim to the department store during the last weekend in July to shop for back-to-school items. Tim was starting kindergarten in the fall, and we wanted to spark some excitement in him by buying a few supplies. The school had sent us a welcome pack over the summer, including a sheet of required tools. It was the usual fare of pencils, pens, glue, crayons, scissors, etc. The first thing we bought was a black-and-red backpack with golf balls on it. Tim and I had been practicing golf quite a bit over the summer, and I promised to take him to a real course next year.
