A Swell Day

I went for a six mile run this morning. I had a drink of water when I arrived home and felt really good so I went out and did six more miles. Kathy was on call today and sure enough she was called in to work. Steph, Josh and I went to the driving range to hit a giant bucket of balls.
Catching Steph's club right before the moment of impact.
It's just a little off target.

I caught Josh's swing as well. Is it obvious that we only do this once a year?

If Steph's club looks a little bent, it's because it is. You get what you pay for when you shell out two dollars for a club at Value Village.

This is how Josh makes the ball hop straight up off the tee.
It's harder than you think.

I had to go to work for a couple hours myself. I rode my bike in since the weather was pleasant enough. The wonderful smell of chicken cacciatore and garlic bread greeted me when I got home. Steph and Josh got the recipe out, bought the ingredients they lacked, and fixed an excellent dinner meal. Josh complained he got onion poisoning in his eyes while cutting up said onion. Steph also baked chocolate cupcakes with no frosting--just the way I like them. Then we capped the day with a video chat with Geoff.

Sounds lovely (maybe except for the working stuff).

I'm glad to see my own golf skills are on par with your kids.

And to make up for that lame joke, I will give you a tip for cutting onions. Chew mint gum while cutting them and you'll avoid getting onion eyes.

Josh plans to wear his lab goggles next time. I'm posting pictures when that happens.
