One thing that we have been enjoying this summer is disc golf. Brent gave Robin some discs at the start of the summer, and so we decided that we would get a couple discs to play as well so we could play a round every now and then with Baby sister. We did not realize how much fun we would have! So we've been playing more and more, and learning about different discs and different courses. My favorite course, of course, is at Covenant Pines. What I like most about it, besides being at the ever amazing Pines, is that there are three sets of tees, so while there are only nine sets of chains, you can play twenty seven holes, and the courses range in difficulty.
So we were up at the Pines this past weekend, and I was playing the yellow course with some of the guys (yellow is the shortest set) and on the first hole, I threw a hole in one! I was really excited, because it was my first hole in one. I ended up seven under par for the yellows, and it really encouraged me to get better; it's funny how we tend to work harder at the things we're better at. Shouldn't we work more on the things we're worse at? Anyways, I love Disc Golf.

Tulsa, The Paris of the US
So last week I was in Tulsa, OK for work. We have to go down there to
transition the work to ourselves (long story that I won't go into). I
got my own room in the Radisson, equipped with a sleep number bed (I was
at a 55 I think). I also got all my meals paid for since I was on a
work trip. All this to say that if you have to go to Tulsa it helps to
have everything paid for. I actually had a pretty good time though.
There are quite a few people at my new job who are in their 20's. There
are also quite a few who have a twin. With myself included there are at
least 4 twins just in the accounting department. Crazy, I know.
One night we left Tulsa and headed to Bartlesville
to go to the Price Tower. This is a Frank
Lloyd Wright building that was made in the '50s. It was very
cool to see. He was very innovative. It was amazing to see all of the details he took the time to make sure were perfect.
