My dad and I played golf yesterday at Tijeras Creek in Orange County. It was a pretty fancy course, the usual green fee is $85 or so. We paid $55 each and played in a tournament dealie. Well, as luck would have it, they had a closest to the pin thing and a long drive competition. I come to the long drive hole and promptly fuck that teeshot up, but then the drive on the next hole goes 315 yards. Bah, that would have won. But....I did manage to stick it to 10 feet on the par 3, winning the closest to the pin contest. So I got a new Callaway wedge, which you can see by following the link below:
I've decided that I am going to sell the wedge, since no one in my family (including myself) can use it. It's kind of a shame, since it's such a nice club. But hey, I'd like to make some money. So....eBay, here comes a sandwedge....
We got caught in some crappy traffic on the way home, so it took forever to come home. Ugh. I hate Orange County traffic. I think that should be a new episode of the OC, one where they deal with the real OC, one that deals with the poor side of town and traffic. That would make me feel better.....not that I'd watch of course........
We played golf again today, this time at Eagle Crest in Escondido. I started out on fire, birdieing two of the first three holes. But then, in classic Rico fashion, I bogeyed a craphole of holes on the backside and ended up shooting 35-40= 75. Bah. Oh well. At least I did play well for 12 holes or so.
So supposedly I fly out of Ontario tomorrow at 1:35 PM. I fly into Salt Lake and then get into Pocatello at night sometime. I'll probably get stuck in Salt Lake for 12 hours or something awesome like that. Sigh......
