Frisbee Anyone?


I hope that everyone was able to get out and enjoy the GORGEOUS weather, if you had any, this past weekend. My AWESOME hubby planned a fun day out for us that included a picnic and a round of frisbee golf. Excited, I got online to see if there were any courses in Louisville that we had yet to try; unfortunately we only have 2 and the one we had yet to try out had a Disc Golf tourney going on. Sat. came and we headed to Iroquois park; only to discover that our main path to the park was closed due to construction. DETOUR (bummer), we should have taken the sign for what it was... someone telling us to turn around and go home while the going was still good.

Once at Iroquois, having played there before, we were shocked to find that the course was 1/2 gone due to construction on plumbing lines that run under the park. Stunned and amused that of course this WOULD happen to us I called a friend to get directions to a park in Indiana that had a course. We were bound and determined to take advantage of such a nice day and refused to let the sight of bulldozers and mounds of dirt deter us from our goal. :)

As we approached our exit to get on 65N from 264E we found it closed. (seriously?!) We had to go down to the next exit and get on 264W before we could get on 65N; only the ramp to 65N from our lane was closed (are you kidding me?!). We had to turn around on Poplar Level and get on 65N from the other direction. LOL. Finally on 65N, we reached the bridge and were crossing the river when I realized we were on the wrong bridge (OHMYWORD!!!). We had to get off and turn around so that we could take the 64 bridge to IN. By this point, I was laughing hysterically and couldn't stop it was just too funny.

After almost 2 hours in the car we FINALLY reached the park. Having had our picnic in the car we headed out for a fun round of Disc Golf. The course was deserted, the weather was perfect, and Brandon only won by one stroke; his winning meant ice cream for me! Despite the rough start it was a fun day... and OF COURSE it would happen to us! :)

This is what happens when Brandon wins.
