A big theme for my life this summer is "change of plans." Last week, this meant foregoing
LeAnn Rimes & Gnarls Barkley for
MiniGolf & Go-Carts. I change my plans a lot, but this post isn't about indecisiveness or how stormy it was all weekend, because there is something more pressing to discuss. That's right, I won a game of Mini Golf for the first time ever. I putted two under par at Volcano Falls in Rockford, IL running on only the power of tuna fish and T
riscuits. I know, I know. I'm massively impressive.

We were initially a little concerned about getting everyone in considering the 58" minimum height requirement, but on our tip-toes, both Ashley and I made it over the bar.

After 18 holes, we settled back on the track for some automotive
harassment by Ashley. She's the one in the pink car. If I had any nagging concerns about her abilities behind the wheel before putting her in a Go-Cart, last Thursday only served to confirmed them. Just goes to show you can take a girl out of Massachusetts, but you can never teach her how to drive responsibly.
Messages to take home: I'm a winner. Go-Carts are winners. Drive safe, Massachusites.
