What a great summer

The weather has been beautiful. Hot day after hot day has made for many days outside on the deck enjoying the sunshine and a cold beer.

We spent most of July at our cabin in Saskatchewan. The only blemish on the whole trip was a vicious hailstorm that did a lot of damage. What can you do.


So after doing a little bit of work the first couple of days, and then clean up from the hailstorm, it was time for a birthday party and then some rest and relaxation. Our daughter turned seven, and lots of family were out to celebrate the event.

Today is the first day back at work and reality has set in. It was a fun and enjoyable time, but not it is over. We were a little sad leaving the cabin, but all good things come to an end.

Not is all that bad, though...next week we leave for a meeting in California. We looking forward to some nice time together again and we plan to do some tourist stuff along the way. We hope our little girl does really well and has a good time!

The golf game suffered a bit while at the cabin, but nothing to get too excited about. I only played twice while away, and it showed. I have had numerous round prior to holidays, and my game has improved to the point where I have lowered my handicap to a 9. That is the lowest I have ever been and I feel good about that. The other thing is that my spouse has gotten out a few times as well. She enjoys the game and is learning as much as she can. She has got a lot better in a short time and I am very happy for her.

The rest of the summer will be spent working, at meetings, on the golf course and trying to take advantage of the beautiful weather that has been forecast.

Does it get any better than that?
