Went shopping
to stock up for
a week or 2. A
little glad not
to mow the lawn.
Rain was forecast.
Have All w/e to
cut the grass and
work on the property.
Can remember going
to work in Boston
and sitting in
bumper to bumper
traffic heading
into the city. No
fun at all.

Yeah, traffic is probably one of the worst features of city living. Right now there's construction everywhere around here, which really causes a lot of delays.
Mowed most of the lawn yesterday. Gotta beat the rain that's due in a couple of hours and go out and finish that plus trim.

Went outdoors
to work. Got
a backache
that kept me
from doing much.
Only a chair
w/lumbar support
relieved it.
Getting up from
the chair causes
its return. Not
sure how long
this one will
last. No work
was done.

Way to listen to your back. The work will wait.
My back told me to stop, too. Got 2/3 done, heading out to finish in a bit.

Not much is
worse than a
backache. A
slow walk on
the property
today irritated
back pain. Lumbar
support relived
the pain. Now
watching the
old Columbo
TV series. Like
Columbo's style
and that he hounds
the suspects.

Columbo was always fun. He always had that gotcha "afterthought" question for a suspect!
Lots of rain here starting about 4 pm yesterday and continuing intermittently overnight. All I need to do outside is trim and spot weed in the lawn but it's too wet. Dang.
Heading to TG this afternoon. It's a holiday but my $30/month membership is good on all weekdays.

Still have a
painful backache
so I'm taking it
easy. Rain tonight
into mid morning
today. $30 a month
for membership at
TG is very fair.
Looked at the TG
website. It reads
One hour of game
play: $30 – $50
per bay. How did
you get 1 month
for $30?

They offer a Platinum membership. It's $720/year and can be shared by two people. So I split it with a golf buddy. $360 was my share, which is $30/month. I can go from 9 am when they open 'til 5 pm weekdays, including holidays. I can take up to 5 guests (each guest's $5 lifetime membership is comped if they don't already have one) at any time and get a 20% discount on food, non alcoholic drinks and gear.

Like the deal
and your low
cost. If the
food is as
good as it
looks, eating
there must be
as popular as
golf. A shame
it's over a 3
hour drive to
the nearest one.
No doubt the
whole experience
must be highly
addictive.

The food is excellent. Had the breakfast burrito this morning. The only problem with food is that the kitchen is on the 1st floor and it's a long way to the bays -- 34/floor. They don't help themselves with some of their presentations. For example, their tots are served in one of those mini fryer baskets. Great look, but how can you get them from the kitchen to a table without being cold? Air flows right through the basket. But that's dictated by corporate according to a manager, so locally they can't fix it.

Yeah cold
food is not
that much fun.
It can even
tick folks
off. Not sure
how far the
food from the
tables. Many
places have
a top cover
for the food
to keep it as
hot as possible.

A cover would be a good idea. The kitchen is on the 1st floor. That's the last floor they open for golf. So the food runner has go to at least the 2nd floor, normally, and often the 3rd floor. Using stairs. Then the bays are like a covered porch. There are 34 bays per floor. At least 10, maybe 12 feet apart. So it's each floor extends more than 100 yards.

The times I
was in the
hospital saw
the food w/a
cover. That
kept the food
at least warm
and a joy to
eat. Still
have a backache.
No mowing yet.
Taking life e-z.

Now that you mention it, I do remember hospitals using a cover. It did work.
Good you're taking it ez on the back.
I walked 18 on a spread out, hilly course today. 6 miles. Quads are mad.

TG needs a
cover on
their food
to keep it
warm and the
folks will
be happy.
Walked around
outdoors to
test my back.
It remains
hurt. Taking
all the time
needed to have
it return to
normal.
