Hitting the Links

I headed down to Texas for the Labor Day holiday and had a wonderful weekend of sand, surf, sun and plenty of golf. On Saturday, Jake and I faced off against his friends Lake & Laura and Nate & Martha in a couples golf scramble. We won with an amazing three over par. I couldn't out-drive Jake, but I did put it on the green for us twice from about 120 yards out!

On Sunday, we headed for the beach at South Padre Island with a posse of other Teachers for America and significant others. I was in heaven with the fluffy white sand and perfectly warm ocean water. Someone had a bright idea to bring clubs and play golf on the beach, but it was only a good idea in theory. There's a reason you try to avoid sand traps.


On Monday, we headed to "Fun Zone," McAllen's premiere entertainment venue for a round of putt putt. Jake beat me by one stroke and even managed a hole-in-one.
