Ryan and I got up early and drove to Tyler State Park for our second Johnny Boge Classic disc golf tournament.
We met Stu, our other player, and took the long walk to our first hole. The game ran pretty smoothly except that we had to wait for the group in front of us on a few holes.
I was all over the place as far as my shots. I had a few really good shots, like this one where I scored a two, and some very poor shots. I had no consistency. I ended out the round with a 90, which is just a few over par so not too bad. We took a much needed lunch break in the car and then threw some discs around until it was time for round two.
I was placed with two other AM2 players for the second round, Todd and Tim. They were nice guys so the round went pretty quick. Unfortunately, I didn't do great. I improved on a few but mostly I did a little worse. The out of bounds hurt me.
I finished with a 64 for a grand total of 154 overall. It could have been much better but it's a six stroke improvement from last year and I tied for fourth place, earning me a Pro Wraith. It was definitely fun and hopefully we'll be able to play some more tournaments this year.
Once I had a chance to go home and clean up I met the guys at Rowan for the battle of the bands to find out who would open the big show in Spring.
We played third and we hadn't practiced so we really didn't know what to expect when we got up there but everything just seemed to come together.
I think we played really well and we all had a great time. The band that played after us was really good as well and they ended up winning the battle. I thought we had a chance at one point but I wasn't upset about the decision at all and I think we all left with smiles on our faces after our performance.
It was a long and tiring day but I had a great time with everything. Sleep is my next reward.
I went to my mom's house in the late morning for a lunch of tortellini with alfredo sauce. It was quite good and we had a good chat for a while.
After I got changed and ready to go I went to pick up Katie* and went to New Delhi for lunch. The buffet was awesome again, as I expected and we had a window seat for a view of the rainy, rainy day.
I got pistachio ice cream for dessert and it was great. Once again, glad it was a small serving because I could have eaten a lot more.
We went over to her friend's apartment to hang out for a while and have some drinks. They were friends from work so the people they didn't work with slowly split apart from them and we started a conversation that we could all be a part of.
We walked a little and then grabbed a cab to get to the Troc for a battle of the bands. There were some really good bands playing. I thoroughly enjoyed them.
Some of the bands were instrumental, but they were equally good. Not a lot of people seemed to be getting into the music but I had fun by myself.
After the show we went to Sugar Mom's for a little while and then to National Mechanics. The latter was pretty fun because people were dancing and the DJ was good.
I walked around the city for a while, heading back to the car. It was a pretty nice night out to walk but it was farther than I thought. It was a fun night but I was ready to go home.
