Summer Goes Too Fast

* I can't believe its already August 21st. A summer without playing Ultimate seemed to go faster then it does when I'm playing. Sub Zero won the Cooler tournament in Milwaukee and they had a so-so showing at Colorado Cup earlier this month. I hope to watch them for the first time this year at sectionals in September.

* Disc golf has been going good lately. I finished 2nd in AMs at the last week of league at Plymouth Creek shooting -4. Then the next week was the first week of league at Sunnyside (which is only 18 holes cause of daylight). I won $22 for first place and most birdies in AMs that week, I shot -4. Last week I also had my best Hyland score shooting a 57. Getting closer to par.

* DK and Beth's wedding weekend was hella fun. We had a washers tournament on Friday and then disc'd before the wedding on Saturday morning. I started to get the flu that night but I was able to pound some vodka redbulls and screwdrivers to mask my flu for a few hours. Nate and I did karoke at the bar next door. We did Tool, it sounded like shit but it was fun. I was pretty sick on Sunday and didn't make the gift opening so that sucked.

* Mandy and I had a nice anniversary weekend at the cabin earlier this month. We got out on the lake a bunch and ate a nice dinner as well. I caught a nice 4lb northern, my biggest fish of the year (I'll post the picture later). We also just got back from a fun weekend in Ely. Jordan and I fished a bunch and played some disc golf at the Ely course. Sunday was a day of eating, sleeping and relaxing.

* We still haven't done much with baby things. Is there something I should be doing right now? I guess I'm just learning as we go and I know Mandy will let me know. We've already got a ton of gifts for the baby. Mandy is pretty convinced its a girl. I'm not sure what to think.

* The Contour is gone. Yes, after 4.5 years I traded in my 1998 Contour SVT last weekend for a 1999 Dodge Durango SLT. The Durango is really nice and it should be a good truck to haul baby stuff around in. Mandy can drive it since its an automatic and I'm sure that'll help come next Feburary as well.
