I tend to sleep in on Saturdays...a lot. So waking up at 4:30am to take my parents to the airport meant I had a lot more free time than usual that day. As a result, I actually got a lot of stuff done! Went mountain biking, golfing, cleaned up parts of the house, and played softball that night.
- Biking was short and a bit too easy, but I followed some paths I hadn't taken before, so at least I know where they go now.
- Golf started out well, but then I got stuck behind this 4-man scramble tournament that was painfully slow. I took a triple on the ninth to shoot a 43, then stopped after that. :-\
Sunday continued the lack of sleep trend, getting up early for the first summer series autox. I was still running a bit late, and only got one course walk in before it was closed. Still, I felt ok about my times and I didn't cone away anything, so that's not too bad. It was also my first time getting results online from start to finish, and while it mostly went ok, I can see some room for improvement. I just hope I can find the motivation to do it. :-P
I actually washed my car on Friday, so it was clean yesterday, albeit a little tilty.
On Sunday I played golf at Starr Pass in Tucson, the "rattler" and "roadrunner" nines. It's definitely a course where you can pick up a few shots the second time you play, as you can't necessarily see your landing area on a number of holes, and that cost me almost every time. I lost half a dozen balls on the day as well, that didn't help me either. But I had some good drives when it counted, and that went a long ways - I birdied 3 of the 4 par 5's, two of which wereon the green in two and I was putting for eagle.
Started out well with a 39 on the front, dropped a few doubles on the back for a 43, so I finished with an 82 on a par 71, and I was happy with that. It was actually my first time playing golf in Tucson, after all these years!
I should be picking up my other driver from the post office today, so I'll have to hit the range a couple times with these clubs back-to-back and see which one turns out better. Whichever one I decide against will probably go up on ebay after I get back from vacation, provided I can't find a seller locally (I'm not really betting on that).
