Busy weekend with Mike and I competing in the Special Olympics Area golf meet. We did not have our best round and finished third with a bronze metal. Mike was happy with that and since I think we will be able to compete at the State level in September we should be in a good bracket. Then on Sunday Mike and I travelled to Kalamazoo for the family reunion which is always the first Sunday in August. It was good to see the cousins, aunts and uncles, as well as to spend some time with my family. For those that have been following, my dad looks great, although we need to send him something fattening. Not sure what he lost beside a kidney but I felt lots of ribs when hugging him. Mom also looks good. Dad and Mom celebrated their 63th wedding anniversary on Monday. Guess that makes sense, my brother turns 62 this year. Where does the time go.
While Mike and I were out and about this weekend Steve was holding down the fort and playing golf in the Country Club championships. He is playing well and finished 1st net in his age group on Saturday (senior championships) and 2nd net overall for the 2 days of tournament. He has entered us in the husband/wife championship this Sunday. He promises me this is just to support the golf program and we will have fun. This tournament is also dubbed "the divorce open", of which we have in the past experienced. Look for results next week.
I played with AJ Monday and we visited my friend Kathy. We went to throw the ball with their dog Riley, but Kathy is generous with her gardening expertise and let AJ help with harvesting. He really enjoyed learning about how vegetables grow. Not too interested in eating them but it was fun to see the exchange of information. Thanks Kathy!
Kathy also has a beautiful yard with lots of native plants that attract all kinds of wildlife. The moose is not native.
With the weather a bit cooler I am off for a run outside now. I haven't been logging as many miles this summer because of golf and the heat but I am looking forward to participating in a few more races this fall.
The cicadas singing all day long are said to be telling us there are only 6 more weeks of summer. Get out there and enjoy it.
