It has been a while since we played at the Lutheran Church. This course is much closer to Adam and Rehana, but it is tiny (only nine holes). There is a big parking lot and it is empty on Saturday (apparently not a day of worship). But I am A.R. about parking away from other cars (and taking two spots). So Jon gave me grief. He joked that another car would park by me even though I was pretty distant from anything. And guess what happens? Mike parks right next to me! This was his first time to the course, so he spotted my truck and parked next to it.

After playing at Old Settlers Park for so long, the holes here seem so tiny in comparison. I could use my putter for the whole course. On hole two, I can overthrow the hole with my putter. However, I usually stick with my long range disc since it gives me some more options for throwing styles. John recently discovered the “Thumb throw” where you hold the disc straight up and grip it with your thumb on one side and the fingers on the other and throw it like a baseball. You can throw it high over the trees. And it flies essentially straight (well +/- 20 feet). John used it for most of his throws off of the tee.

Speaking of tees, my throw off of tee 3 veered off to the right and landed at tee 4.

For lunch we went to Red Robin. I tried their taco salad which looked like a huge starfish alien. Not only is it far too much food for a meal, but they drizzle ranch sauce over it (200 extra fat-based calories). So I got them to substitute salsa for it.

Afterwards we drove down to King’s Hobby and browsed. And then off to The Gas Pipe on Burnett. We bought some more discs cause we keep loosing them, you know?
