Just realized it's been 2 weeks since I've posted something... and probably 2 years since I've posted something interesting. ba dum dum.
I can rectify the former, not promising anything on the latter.
Where to start... Our insurance covered the sump pump malfunction and I think we've determined what we're going to do for the basement floor. We found some vinyl flooring that "looks" like wood flooring only I won't have to rip it up next time we get water on it. This will allow us some piece of mind. We'll be getting it installed from Drexel Interiors, but haven't ordered it yet. Some time this week.
My new lawn mower works great. What a difference key start and being rear-propelled makes. Nice to just walk behind instead of pushing, especially on the hills.
In golf land, we started league last week. I shot a 43 but I gave away a stroke on each of the first 5 holes due to incredibly bad putting. I feel like I'm getting closer. I'm driving the ball in the fairway consistently (slowed down, lost a little distance but more under control). My irons are just not doing the job right now. I need to go to the range and work on them.
Saturday we played in a charity scramble at Wild Rock in the Dells. Wild Rock replaced the Wilderness golf course at Wilderness Resort. We finished at a whopping +5, good for 2nd to last. None of us could putt, not really good for a scramble. I did win a hole prize and a 50/50 prize for closest to the pin on the par 3 4th hole. I got really lucky. It was about 180 yards, water along the right the whole way and the pin tucked back in the corner over the water. I just happened to hit a 5 iron just left of the pin and it rolled right down to about 10 feet or so. Of course we all missed the birdie putt. I picked up a Wild Rock windshirt and $44 for my $3 entry into the 50/50.
As for the course, it still needs a little work but it's a really cool set up. Massive elevation changes and the greens... well, there's not a flat spot on them and every one has at least 3 tiers. You definitely need to hit to the right tier or you're looking at a near impossible 2 putt.
Thursday marks Cdubya and my 20th wedding anniversary. Hard to believe it was 20 years ago when two young kids travelled to Kauai and got married in a beautiful setting. It still makes me laugh to look at our wedding pictures. Thank god I cut the mullet off...
Well, I better get to working. Catch you all later.
