Tee It Up!

We have been on a major golfing kick lately. They announced at work that we will be having golf outing in September. So who knows, maybe deep down we are practicing up for that! Last weekend was perfect weather to enjoy a day out on the links. We played 18 holes at Windham Country Club in NH last Saturday. They have a good twilight rate with a cart. I have been spoiled most of my life between playing in middle school/high school/college and working at a golf course for 7 years… I am so used to free golf! Now, we have to shop around for the best deals. Windham is a nice course though. It’s very challenging with lots of hills, water, and narrow fairways. You need to hit it straight on this course! I did not shoot under 90 on this round, so it looks like I need some more practice. After golfing we met Mike and Julie at Shorty’s for some good Mexican food in Nashua. Then we went to Chunky’s Cinema to see Inception (the new Leonardo DiCaprio movie) – super good! Chunky’s is our new favorite place to watch movies (the two times a year we actually leave the house to see a movie). They have big leather chairs set up around tables that you can lounge in and waiters that come around and serve you food, drinks, dessert, etc. It’s great! Your butt will never fall asleep at the theater again... but you may have to go to the bathroom more often!









We've been going to the driving range in Middleton a few times after work to perfect the old swing, as well. My favorite part about that is Richardson’s homemade ice cream is right on the premises. Nothing beats a double scoop of Moose Tracks after hitting a large bucket of balls on a hot summer night. Talk about a perfect way to wind down after a long day on the job.












This weekend we played at Fresh Pond Golf Course in Cambridge with Mike. It’s a little 9 hole track. First come, first served… so on a Saturday afternoon it was quite backed up! It took us about 3 hours to play 9 holes. Wow! I don't remember the last time that's happened. (JV golf meet maybe?!) The course was in good shape though. Not too challenging, but some fun holes nonetheless. Sunday we got 9 more holes in with Darcy at the Woburn Country Club, another 9 hole course. Golf two days in a row... life is good. Unfortunately, I still can't break 40 even with all the practice we've been getting. At least I can still beat Adam though - that's all that really matters. ;o)
