Round 35 FTY at Iroquois GC


Played Iroquois GC today. We played the back nine first. I shot a 41 - 45 = 86. I thought I really played terrible. I'd been chipping and putting very well but today it left me. I even chunked a couple of short chips and left them short of the green. My score seems pretty good for feeling like I played so bad, so I guess that's pretty good. (To shoot an 86 playing terrible). I'm playing Saturday morning with Mark Wagner at Charlie Vettener GC. I hope my short game comes back home or it's going to be a long day. I'm not sure he'll let me play from the Senior Tees.

Our trip down Main Street




Mary Lynn and I went to the Fontaine Ferry Exhibit Sunday down on Main Street. For several blocks around the Louisville Slugger Museum these plaques were located at various intervals on Main Street. All Hall of Fame Ballplayers. I don't know how many there are, but I saw more than a dozen. I guess it's the 'Walk of Fame' leading to the Slugger Museum. I'd never heard about these being there. They're kinda neat.

Keeping Louisville Weird





Mary Lynn and I couldn't resist getting a picture of this car parked on Rosewood Ave. just a couple of blocks from our house. Kim seemed to think there was a 'Decorated Car Contest', or 'Art Car Contest', or something on that order in Louisville this week and I would guess this is one of the entries. Anyway, this is helping in the 'Keep Louisville Weird' movement. As you can see through the windshield, decorations weren't just limited to the outside.

It was a Flood of Biblical Proportions



I didn't get the word until almost 10 a.m. this morning that this was the 'Big One'. Luckily I've been trapping the animals for several months now. I gathered all the squirrels, chipmunks, raccoons and neighborhood cats, Male and Female, and loaded them onto the Ark. The water was already very high, but most of my animals have had extensive swimming lessons and this made for easier loading on the Ark. I plan on being afloat for a few days and will look for either the tip of Hogan Fountain's Pavilian, or lookout point at Iroquois Park. See you when the water goes down!

Sorting Hat?

Someone better check to see if Hogwart's is missing their sorting hat!

Our House Gets Cleaned




We had our house professionally cleaned today. The workers were very thorough. I highly recommend them. The only problem we had with them was that they complained about the amount of dust they had to get up.

Geography Class



Erin took the time while visiting today to give Mimi a Geography lesson. It took a lot of patience from Erin and to help Mimi work this map of the United States. Mimi repeatedly tried to put the Carolinas on the West Coast. Erin finally had to resort to pointing out pieces to her and telling her to "Try it over here".
