This morning, I headed to Lowe’s like I said I would and picked up the supplies needed to make the “Ladder Golf”/”Hillbilly Golf”/”Redneck Horseshoes” or whatever you want to call it.
I was finished with the project and testing it out in the front yard by 3:15PM.
At about 3:30, Dan Warren showed up to pick me up for our afternoon of golfing. We headed to “Racoon Run” – a local golf course and met up with Thomas Young and Jay Godshalk. Thomas is an IWU Senior and comes to Warsaw Wesleyan when he’s home. Jay was on our softball team and also attends our church.
What a blast we had!
I haven’t been “real” golfing since I was in college, I think. This was truly a day-off treat that I won’t soon forget. $15 paid for 9-holes and a golf cart too!
We played “cart-best” so I was with Jay. Thomas and Dan played on the other team. If Jay hit the ball closer to the pin, I would pick up and move to his location and vice-versa. When all was said and done, Jay and I had fun, but were 10-over par (on only 9 holes, remember!) Thomas and Dan were just a couple over par.
At about hole 4, the clouds starting getting darker-than-normal and it poured like I hadn’t seen it pour in a long time in Warsaw.
Tomorrow morning we have our monthly NETWORK meeting – this time at First Christian Church where my buddy Gary is the youth pastor. My other buddy Scott Greene is joining us for his first-ever NETWORK meeting. It’s always a great time when multiple youth pastors get together!
Tomorrow night, Jess and I are headed to Bluffton for “game night” with the Garrett Family! I’m looking forward to that!
