Default What did you do today

I played golf at the newly refurbished (opened yesterday) Del La Vista golf course. Great job. Greens and tees are in perfect shape. Cart paths all smooth and new benches on every hole. Seen sand hill cranes, an eagle, and bear scat on the course. Shot plus 2 - good day for me. Then across the street to Tierra Del Sol restaurant for a late breakfast, chocolate pancakes - yummy. Got a kick out of a group of ladies from some sort of club wearing black leotard outfits with pink aprons. I was too shy to ask what their club was but they sure were having fun. The bloody Mary's and mimosas' were flowing just fine. A stop at town next to walk around and take in all the very talented crafters and their goods. Then home for a nap (much needed and enjoyed). A quick trip back to town with my bride to watch TAT2 first set in the bandstand. Best of all I just finished a sausage sandwich with peppers and onions.

Can you beat my day ? Still living the dream.

Living the dream my way. Hung out with my dude. Ran errands. Took a nap. Enjoyed.

Played Palmer Legends (RG to CH, shot 76), trimmed and mowed the yard, then watched my Hogs win a crazy OT game against Ole Miss. Ah, what a place!

Visiting New York City. Slept in and enjoyed a late breakfast. Toured the Museum of Modern Art. Spent the remainder of the day at the Irish Pub.

Fought a bunch of Confederate Rebels today at the Florida Horse Park, and believe it or not, they were still carrying the Confederate battle flag in spite of all the political flap. Today we won, tomorrow when the spectator crowd is larger, they win.

Got up at 7, watched news, strength, went for walk. Had breakfast, when for some pickleball, came home restrung one of my tennis rackets. Done couple honey do lists items, watched an unbelievable tennis match on the tennis channel. Had snack for lunch. Watched some college football. Went and drilled /hit with tennis friend. Relaxed, went out for supper.
Finishing the night off watching Bama vs LSU. All in all great day and still breathing!

Cleaning lady came and did a great job. While she was working I went to the library. Drove her to the bus stop.

Went to the gym then Trader Joe's. Then went out on the town with my honey. Life is great!

Good to see these kinds of threads every so often...to remind us of what a great life we have here in TV...whether your thing is sports, entertainment, arts and crafts, shopping, reading, etc.

Pickleball in the morning, followed by golf at Mangrove, and lunch at Evans Prairie (steak salad was delicious). Home after 3pm to relax, watch some college football and catch up on TOTV. A fun day...

In the morning I relaxed at home, my wife made eggs, toast and hash browns for lunch. Went to Saddlebrook for a 1pm softball game, I play shortfielder for Amelia 4 and it was really hot in the field. We beat Bridgeport at Miona Shores 8 -1. Came back home and spent the rest of the day relaxing, watching football and catching up on some shows I recorded during the week, such as Elementary and How to Get away with Murder. Had planned on going to Brownwood to see Uncle Bob, but we didn't feel like going back out, sometimes rest is good.

Are you all getting your thought together for today? My day was not as exciting as yesterday but wait until you here what we had for lunch today. Still living the dream.
