Travel Weekend

This weekend everyone was traveling. Jen hit me up on Wednesday for a ride to Houston Hobby Airport. She was traveling to St Louis to see her mom and visit the rest of her relatives. Her niece joined her for the flight and all the great things to do in St Louis. On the way back from the airport I attempted to eat at two Subways. One was super busy and wasn’t worth the wait and the other Subway I was only able to find the sign of where it used to be, so i just decided that I shouldn’t eat out and I should just go home and watch Rescue Me and eat the leftover Jambalaya from earlier in the week.

On Thursday, I took my parents to the Easterwood Airport here in College Station for their trip to New Orleans for French Quarter Festival. I spent Thursday night enjoying NBC’s great lineup of Parks and Recreation, The Office and Southland. Friday Night it was poker night, I was a little late from getting off of work due to making some decisions in the third guy hiring process, I grabbed some snacks and several brews from HEB and went home. Everyone pretty much got here by seven so we were off and rolling. I ended up going out around 2am as only the second one out of the five player game.

Saturday it rained like crazy all morning, and since the Rec Center was busy with a racquetball tournament Judd and I went for a ride out towards South College Station and got 32 miles in. This ties my longest ride ever and puts me on par for my 200 miles a month goal. We also grabbed some Ninfas and they seriously have the best Quesadillas in town, however that left me as pretty much just a waste for the rest of the day. Sunday, I was thinking about going for a ride in Houston down at Brays Bayou, however after so far the day before I my back was quite sore and I really didn’t feel up to it. So I headed to Houston a bit later, grabbed lunch at Subway which was probably the best Subway sandwich I had ever had from there, Picked up Jen around 3pm and was back in College Station by 6pm. I also took care of the dog all weekend so I was back and forth to the parents house a few times.

Monday I picked up the parents from the airport around 4pm and got them home and chatted with them for a bit about their trip. Then grabbed a quick sandwich on sweet bread from St. Louis, and played two nine hole rounds, over at First Baptist Church. The first round I was just kind of learning the course since I hadn’t ever played their before. I believe I shot about 3 or 4 over. The second time around I shot even because I knew where the holes where. Hopefully, my friends and I can make a thing of this because I really do enjoy doing just about anything that has to do with the outdoors, and frisbee golf is quite relaxing and fun at the same time. I also didn’t realized how many courses we have in the Bryan / College Station area we have about 5 or so 9 hole courses and the 18 hole one out at Research Park. Anyways, now I am home watching Southland again for Jen and updating the blog.
