To all those that tried to get ahold of me at the shop, sorry I slipped out for a few days.

The girlfriend's birthday was the 1st of Feburary, so her and I decided to go south (Arkansas) and spend it with some of her family. All in all it was a GREAT vacation.
Highlights:

1)Weather. It was "unseasonably" cold down there...a balmy 30 degrees on wednesday, warming up to 48 by sunday.

2)Golfing. I got introduced to that this past weekend, and now I am addicted :(. Oh well, I found it very relaxing, and gets me away from cars from time to time. Ended up playing 3 rounds (small). 2 6-hole courses and 1 9-hole course. It is probably the hardest sport I have ever played, I think that is why I like it so much.

3)Entertainment and customer service. It was an action packed few days off and the people down there were great (Fort Smith, AK). The drivers suck, just like here, but overall customer service is MUCH NICER than minnesota.

Glad to be back, as I missed the people up here.

Man I'd love to get back on the golf course on some old country hole in the wall course where people care more about the type of beer served and how cold it can be kept during 9 or 18 holes of play.

Welcome back Swanny.

Welcome back!! And yes Hell has frozen over. 48 is better than -17, but glad you had fun, and found a new hobby

You know when it turns 40 degrees here we will all be going out in shorts and t shirts. LOL

In Duluth I would drop the top if it was sunny and high 20's! Just have to wear gloves and a hat.

Glad to hear you enjoy golfing. With my 2 months off in the summer I'm always looking for people to play with.
