Parents in Town

Last weekend I had an excellent visit with my folks. Unfortunately I couldn't get more time off work, but the time I had was well spent. We played one of the local golf courses, enjoyed nice dinners, and visited old neighborhood friends up in Polson.

I only play golf a few times a year, mainly when my folks are in town, but my competitive side comes out strong. Even though my dad is a golfing freak :) and I barely play, I can't help but try to beat him. This isn't easy though since he is very good. I haven't beat him yet, but I'm coming closer. I shot an 84 and he beat me by two strokes, shooting an 82. Maybe next year!

Sunday we headed up to Polson to visit Ralph and Connie Brownell. I grew up with their kids and a few years ago they retired to Polson. They have a nice big boat so we spent the day out on Flathead. It was a nice day of swimming, exploring islands, and relaxing.
