Father Son Golf - A Dream

So I had another fun dream last night, though it was equally odd. I was with my dad, and we were at a company event for the company he used to work for. It was some kind of mini golf event. My dad was reluctant to allow me to participate, as there were lots of water obstacles, and if you hit the ball in the water, you had to go after it. The water was also deeper the more off course you went.
The first few holes were pretty easy to stay on the main path. On hole four, that's when the water really started coming into play. It became easier to hit the ball off course, sending into water. And the father off course, the deeper the water. We still only ended up in ankle deep water from it though. Each hole got progressively more narrow, and the water that was shallow just off the path became much deeper much sooner. Around hole 7, my dad hit the ball off course and had to go in after it. The water ended up being waste deep, and he was wearing blue jeans and a red polo shirt. Bending to pick up the golf ball also got most of his shirt wet too.
From that point on my dad told me to stay out of the water and he would just get my ball if it went off course, since he was already wet. He still figured I disliked getting my normal clothes wet. He kept putting first on each of the holes so he would go ahead of me and be in the water when necessary. That changed when we got to the 12th and final hole (not sure why there was only 12 holes, but it's a dream, just go with it). I insisted that I got to putt first since I hadn't been since the early holes. He allowed it. This was the most difficult hole, it was a straight shot to the hole, but the path was super narrow, just barely wider than the size of the golf ball. The water also got super deep, from 4 foot deep just off the path (about chest high), all the way to 6 foot deep (where you'd have to dive all the way under to get the ball). I hit the ball and of course it went off the path and into the deeper water. Without giving my dad a chance to react, I waded into the water, wearing my knee length jean shorts and a white t-shirt with a big red and blue logo on the front. I dove down into the water, enjoying being fully submerged, and came back up smiling and laughing about it, with the ball in my hand. This surprised my dad, as he wasn't aware I now enjoyed getting my normal clothes soaked.
Well, that was when I woke up. It was a fun dream, and someone should take that idea for a mini-golf course and make it real.
