Ewww! How on earth... I bet you use lots of bleach ;)

Alicia said...

What did he do? Golf w/out shoes? LOL!

Kimberly Kihega said...

LOL! What happened to his shoes? I bet he had a great time!

Heatherlyn said...

Does he take care of golf courses? I recently learned that there is an actual degree in golf-course grass management, or something like that. There sure are are a lot of ways to make a living!

Vickie said...

Oh.My.Gosh! Bleach can't help those socks!

NateAndJakesMom said...

I got me one of those sets of dirty socked feet. Unfortunately, instead of telling me they are there - I find them as I sort the laundry. I reach in and pull out ... ewwww.

Kimberly said...

Its a tough job but somebody's gotta do it! He must definitely get his exercise having to walk around the greens all day. You should do a review on something that helps get your whites whiter and put those babies to the test!

Yaya said...

Yeah, I just took up golfing this year and it is NOT easy!

Secret Mom Thoughts said...

Hard work for sure.

Dee said...

LOL! Takes a lot of work to keep them looking like that!

Staci said...

Wow!!!! There is NO helping those socks!

kiddiescorner said...

ewww lol

April said...

These pictures come as no surprise...my husband is a golfer. Been there, done that! Happy WW!

LT said...

Ahh yes, boys and their dirt. Too funny you took pictures of his socks! Thanks for sharing it!

Renée aka Mekhismom said...

What in the world? Was he tending to the grass with no shoes on?

Tami said...

LOL, I'd make him strip before he came in the house! NO DIRT allowed would be posted on my door. Oxy clean here I come!

Octamom said...

He's bringing his work home with him...

Blessings!

Susie said...

Yikes! Get out the Oxiclean, Mom!

Penelope said...

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Momma@Live. Laugh. Pull your hair out said...

LOL...my boys have socks like that and they are 5 and 7!

I always have a spare package of socks!

Kiki (G.G.) said...

Those are some stunning socks. I'm sure the smell of his feet is stunning too. Yuck! Glad I go hit the balls at the course and not maintain the greens. Take care.

Amy A.K.A. "The Mrs." said...

Ick! Is he responsible for his own laundry? I hope? Ick!

Bobby G said...

Yikes! its like when I mow the lawn!

Mighty M said...

Wow! Now that is some dedication to the job!!

Elaine A. said...

Golfers everywhere thank him. : )

Linda @ My Trendy Tykes said...

Better break out the bleach, mom!

mannequin said...

A curtsy to his craftsmanship.

It's the unsung golf course heroes and their moms that are the backbone of America.

Thank you Mr. Golf Course Groundskeeper.

kyooty said...

Cue the Ground Hog!! I'm sure that he feels some huge sense of accomplishment at the end of the day when it looks untouched and all the divits are put back in place?

Staci said...

Yikes! It looks beautiful, but all that laundry. Ugh!

Rebecca Jo said...

Oh my word... that is some dirtiness right there!

Amy said...

Our golf course is going to the pits. He needs to come over and work here.

Kati said...

I did see that coming... gross!

Mrs4444 said...

Wow. That IS impressive! I,too, think you should do a review for something that gets those back to white. Is that possible??

Justine said...

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww! ROFLMAO!

Justine :o )

a49erfangirl said...

Yuck!!LOL

Cascia said...

Looks like he worked hard and the golf course looks great!

Suz said...

Sick! I'm surprised he's wearing two socks, though, honestly.

Ashlee said...

Wow! I'm glad I had just turned off the smell-o-vision on my computer before I clicked on your blog :). He must work hard!! Golf course does look good!!

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

So...does he work without shoes or what? ;) Looks like he does an outstanding job! :)

Happy WW! :)

Amy said...

Wow, now those are some dirty socks. What is your secret to getting them clean?

Golfersmom said...

Wow, Haley says he keeps a very good golf course and she would love to play on it. Hope you have a great rest of the day.

conversationswithmoms said...

He must get exhausted. I hope you get discounts on socks because you must go through a lot of them. Bleach can only do so much.

blognut said...

Tell me that you used a zoom lens and didn't have to get too close to those feet in order to photograph them.

Blech.

shopannies said...

thanks for sharing the other side to golfing

3 Bay B Chicks said...

I read through all of your comments. I think you already received every possible witty quip that I could come up with.

I do think that you are missing a rave review of YOUR photography skills. Blueviolet, you're like a National Geographic photographer of the blogosphere.

Keepin' it real.

Michelle said...

And I'm sure all the golfing fans love him for his dirty socks. :)

Firefly@www.firefly-shop.org said...

Jenni Jiggety said...

Sparkette said...

Oh my goodness that's not right.

T~T said...

Sara Bonds said...

LOL! How did the dirt and grass get INTO his shoes? Boys are weird. *haha*

Happy WW from Sara @ The Mostly Wordless Wednesday H.Q.!

Moms On The Go said...

Those look stinky LOL

Well worth it:)

Pricilla said...

Beauty has its price....

Felicia said...

Goes to show that everything beautiful comes with work! I'm the clay and He is the potter!

Valerie said...

Ok I am glad that I don't have to wash those socks! lol

Michelle said...

Ewww, stinky feet. LOL! I have a few of those around my house too. Time for the bleach. Thanks for the chuckle today.

Hugs
Michelle

Bee and Rose said...

Wowza! Next time I pass the golf course, I will be saying thank you! Are you the lucky one who gets to clean these beauties?

Julia said...

You want a sock competition and i can bring it! I have never treated the world to Wyatt's socks. THEY are a sight to behold. Seriously!

But I would hate to walk around in those there socks...or be the one to wash them.

Lizzie said...

yup, i know golfer's socks well :) my hubby hasn't done very much since we moved but i used to wonder "how in the world?" whenever he'd come home

Sherry said...

These photos look like the start of a great commercial for some detergent, bleach or something!!

Sherry at EX Marks the Spot

Heather of the EO said...

I think I can smell them through my screen... :)

Anissa said...

LOL -- I don't know if I would wash them or throw them out.

Just A Mom (Call me JAM for short) said...

Veronica Lee said...

Buckeroomama said...

You're not going to even attempt to wash those, are you? LOL!

Life with Kaishon said...

Icky Icky Icky! : ) That golf course looks so nice though. Wowzers.

~*~ Melissa ~*~ said...

I feel your pain! Leland's socks look even worse than that after a day on the roof. And he refuses to take them off right, so i have to pull them out. SO gross!

Pamela Kramer said...

That's just gross! rofl...Happy WW it was nice of you to share. Thank goodness there isn't smellovision.

Muthering Heights and Other Senseless Sensibility said...

Taht looks like a good set up for an Oxy Clean commercial!

Mrs. Fish: aka Two Fish said...

Ewww I can just imagine the stench! YUM (GAG!!!!!!!)

Helene said...

Wow!! So do you even bother trying to wash them or do you just buy him new socks in bulk??

I do have to say though that the golf course looks amazing...he obviously does good work!

Jennifer said...

Ack, that looks exactly like my husband's socks after a days work. I HATE washing his socks.

Hate. Did I mention hate?

Angela said...

Yikes! I hope he does his own laundry!

My WW Post

RockMyFriday!com said...

Now those need to be washed! lol:)

LadyStyx said...

Hubby's socks got like that simply from steppin outside for a smoke. I started insisting on him wearing slippers. Only way I can get 'em clean is if I use just enough hot water to cover the clothes and let them soak for a while in a solution of detergent and adouble shot of Oxyclean. When they're done soaking (leave them for at least 30-60 minutes), fill the washer up to the usual load amount and run through its cycle...

Sarah said...

Yuck, and then you probably get stuck with the laundry right? Sometimes OxiClean is my very best friend.

babyrocasmama said...

YUCK! how the heck do you get those socks clean?

Great pics, by the way. Very clever.

Heather said...

I'm scared to admit this, but I find my 14 yr. old with his socks like this & he has no job!!

Blessings Abound said...

Well, it's not comfortable to wear shoes when you're on the course all day, lol. I hope you can get those socks white again! Happy WW!
