Day 1 and Day 2 of vacation

Monday is what I consider the first day of vacation.  Saturday and Sunday are just a normal weekend.  Right!?  I would have those off anyway.  For our first day of vacation we did something that I have never done!  I have lived in this area all my life.  But, I have never played frisbee golf.  I am now thinking of turning professional.  But, I am just that good!   We went out and found 4 frisbees that were different colors.  Mine was purple.  My favorite color!  Which is pretty much why I rocked at this game.  We have done nothing but play frisbee this week.  We are having so much fun!  We even made our own little course here at the house. 

In case you live here and do not know, Milligan Park has a 22 hole course.  We are pretty confused about the choice of 22.  Because a golf course normally has 18 holes.  But, nothing is normal in Crawfordsville!  So we started our morning off.  We had a little trouble with the wind.  But, we had a great time!! We laughed and laughed at how horrible some of our throws were. 

We got to meet a lot of interesting people that play frisbee golf!  I know that in golf the uglier the outfit the better.  But, I think the camo is the plaid of frisbee golf.  Or maybe it is just a staple here in town.  Since, I don't own any camo.  I might have go shopping before the next time.  These guys (dressed in camo)  even had a caddy carrying a bag with other frisbees!  They were pros for sure!!  Now I could see where a towel would be helpful.  We did loss ours in the creek a couple of times.  The park has provided a "disc dipper" ( that is the technical term posted on the tree) so that you can fish it out.  We just sent these little kids that were already playing in the creek to get ours.

All in all, we had a great afternoon of fun!  We have even found out there is another frisbee golf course in town.  At Hoover Elementary school.  We are going to have to check that course out and give you a full review! Now I did forget to take my camera on the course.  (No phones allowed.  It might disrupt the golfers.  No I just forgot!)  So we took a few shots after we got back to the truck.

Bethany had to make sure to get a pic of me.  I try very hard to stay out of pictures.

That was day one.  Much more exciting then day two.  Day two started off with a nice morning run with my running partners.  We are trying to stretch our midweek runs longer.  But, we are on such a short time frame during the workweek.  We thought that since we were all off this week we would do some 4 mile base runs.  We got a solid run in.  Time is questionable if we will make it next week.  But, I think we will get faster and faster.  Well, at least that is the plan.  It is hard to push yourself at 5am.  That is why I like running at that time.  My brain isn't awake to tell me not to.  : )

Today, I start my swim challenge for the month of April.  I am going to push myself to get of this fear of the water.  I am going to attempt a feat that is so unimaginable by non swimmer.  I have been told by many swimming people.  That you must do something for 21 days straight to rid yourself of the fear.  So, that is my challenge.  I am going to try to swim or get in the water for 21 days straight.  This will be hard to do. I can't even imagine putting a swimsuit that many times!  But, I am going to do this.  So stay tuned for an update each day to find out what I'm doing to conquer this fear.  I really do want to become a swimmer.  I hope that by the end of these 21 days I will be able to swim a solid 50 and be close to 100.  My absolute top goal would be to swim a 250 by the time this is done.  Stay tuned for the results!!

The first swim log will be posted tomorrow!

Enjoy your Wednesday!!
