I Love Saturday Mornings....

I love Saturday mornings when spending them with friends, enjoying the summer weather and what we have left of it!  We hiked in Taylor Falls Park today... well, hiked AND climbed I should say.  Most of the trails bring us to a boulder or two to climb up on and over to keep going on with our journey.  We even discovered things we haven't seen before on the trails... devil's cave, natural potholes carved into the rocks, and so much more.  We tried new trails, and even "off-roaded" a little... we crossed the border and went over to the Wisconsin side of the river and took in the views and trails from that side... most people we happy to cross back over to the Minnesota side... especially after seeing some Packer fans hiking as well.  So our "Welcome to Minnesota" sign pictures, were truly a relief (to some... I'm a Packer fan... SHHH don't tell!)  After we crossed back over, we headed to this old-fashioned ice cream shop and rewarded ourselves for our accomplishments that morning!  We conquered our fears and met some new people... as we do every day as a part of E&A!

Feeling Like A Million Bucks...Polo & Car Show

I think everyone has seen the movie "Pretty Woman" right??  Remember the part where she goes to the Polo Game with Richard Gere's character?  Well, that's what we did this past weekend... minus the role she played in the movie... ha!  We dressed up in our "garden party" attire, hats and sipped champagne under the shade of our very own Events & Adventures party tent.  We watched the Polo match but mostly wandered around gawking at the exotic cars that were displayed in the car show... some ranging from the 100,000's to the 1/2 million dollar price... all way out of our budgets!!  At one point I think we all decided we could go in on one together and share custody... not sure how that will work out... but either way, we had a great time enjoying the Sunday afternoon, each other's company and meeting new faces.  Cheers to another fun event with Events & Adventures!

We Had Our First Outing Of Foot Golf!

We had our first outing of Foot Golf this past weekend, the new sport that is "sweeping the nation"!  As we were waiting in the club house waiting for everyone to arrive, we were debating on if it's still called a "tee time" or if it should be a "kick off" or "punt time"... as we split into teams and sent the first one off, we were figuring out our strategies and anxious to see what was in store for us.  The first group "kicked off" and we watched as they made their way closer to the 21 inch cup... We heard some cheers as a surprising kick went in along with some "Ahhhhh's" when the ball didn't go in... then it was our turn to try!  We each placed our ball on the tee box as it was out turn and made a running kick, much like the "Happy Gillmore" in the movie, just without a club!  And as we made our way through the course and laughed and cheered each other on, we realized at the end of the round, that it doesn't matter what we do because we get to do it with friends!  AND something we normally wouldn't have tried!  We can't wait until our next round of Foot Golf!  FORE!!!!!!!!!!!!
