D-Alli behind the wheel of GR2
Meet D-Alli: Carolina Carting Legend D BY DR. MOUNCE
ebbie Allison is a ray of sunshine behind the wheel of a golf cart. During her morning social ride, she opens up about her passions for kindness, fitness, and the golf cart lifestyle. When I rang Debbie Allison, she put me on speaker. She was driving one of her golf carts – affectionately named GR2 (Grandover Rolls Royce) – around her North Carolina neighborhood of Grandover, in Greensboro. She also spends a lot of time driving CR2 (Crescent Rolls Royce) – her cart in Crescent Beach, a neighborhood in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She said her 3-legged rescue dog named TyneDiamond (TyneD to her humans), was along for the ride, and I imagined they were both in their usual bedazzled pink garb. In December 2014, I was gifted a book for Christmas by someone who barely knew me. Lemons to lemonade (Little Ways to Sweeten Up Life’s Sour Moments) by Addie Johnson, is a collection of short stories, quotes, tips, and quips designed to perk you up. I asked D-Alli if she 28 www.GolfCarting.com
remembered giving me that book. Oh, she remembered, but that could wait. She quickly transitioned the conversation back to me. “Before we go any further, how are you doing? How’s your family? What’s happening?” Afterwards, D-Alli tells me that in a year and a half, she will be 70-yearsyoung. “I’m just a mere 68!” She laughs at this, and it is contagious. She parks GR2
