I went golfing at The Bridges this weekend. I think there is a tournament called “Battle at the Bridges” which includes pro golfers like Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson that have played on this course before. Its not an easy course for putting that’s for sure. I had an awful time reading the greens.
I’m not a very good golfer but on the 17th hole I almost made a hole-in-one. It was a 180 yard par 3 hole and when I hit it, it landed on the green and rolled to the cup, hitting the pin and bounced away. So close but not quite there. I did get the birdie though.
Ok, I have to work tomorrow and I’m only trying to kill some time before going to bed so I can get a decent night’s sleep. If I crashed as soon as I got in this evening I would have been up at 4:00 in the morning. We went to Vegas this weekend and it was incredible.
I’m too tired to write any more about it…besides what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas
I just got an invitation in the mail the other day for Ryan’s wedding. Its towards the middle of March so it looks like I’ll be back in Lafayette, Indiana around that time. It should be nice to see everyone again.
Saturday night a bunch of us went to the Supercross Championship at Qualcom Stadium to see some dirt bike racing. It was pretty cool but it started about an hour late. We didn’t know why at the time but apparently there was a pretty serious wreck that happened before most of the crowd arrived. We left the event still unaware of the incident and it was only when I was on the computer on Sunday that I found out that someone had died. The story below give some detail but I guess they didn’t announce anything because there were friends and family in the stands that they wanted to talk to before letting anyone else know.Yahoo!

Ever read the classifieds and found something funny? This site tracks all of the odd and quirky online posts that people list. Some are things for sale (such as an old desk that can’t be given away) and others are a little more racy such as the rant about why we don’t have personal jet-packs by now as promised in the 1950’s.

Trap shooting was the correct term to use for yesterday. The difference between trap and skeet is mostly the direction the clay pigeon travels I believe. Trap shooting involves the pigeon moving away from the shooter and with Skeet shooting, it moves across the horizon. We originally were going to do both but with the place closing soon we only had time for trap. Of course I was happy just to go. It was a lot easier and a lot cheaper than I expected. My first time I shot 10/25 and then after that I was 16/25. I will definitely be returning soon.
Ok, this is actually not my first post but the others have disappeared and I’m not able to find them. They could be archived or deleted. Either way they were boring…kind of like this one.
