A Warm Weekend

From A:

The weather has finally warmed up and we had highs in the 70s this weekend!  J and I took advantage of the beautiful weather by playing some golf and going to the lake.

J is such an expert golfer that he had to make the game more challenging by adapting his 5 iron:

 

Truthfully, the head of his club flew off after he hit a shot.  We estimate that it traveled about 75 yards, but we weren't able to find it.  Coincidentally, we found the head of another 5 iron, but it was for a right-handed club (definitely not J's since he golfs left-handed).

Here I am showing off my golf skills.  There isn't much to show off because I'm a terrible golfer.  I have fun, but I'm pretty sure my swing doesn't look like it should:


That's the office/trailer of the driving range in the background.  This upscale facility is complete with an old car that has a target painted on the side.

We also went out to the lake so J could get in some fishing with the new fishing rod he got for Christmas.  It was a beautiful day at the lake:

 

Some guys further down the bridge from us caught a HUGE fish while we were there, so we definitely know that fish exist in the lake.  J decided to spare the lives of the fish during this trip, but they might not be so lucky next time!

  2. That weather looks wonderful! Anne -- Our golf skill levels are probably pretty similar. I'm very impressed that you're giving it a try.
