Disc Golf 09/07/2007

Birdie

I drove down to Circle-R again to take pictures of their second disc golf course before Circle-R closes for some time for improvements. And, boy, do they need improvements! The course is unplayable. With all of the recent rains, the grasses and small bushes have overrun the place. Unless you had spotters, you probably would not be able to find where it landed. The signs were broken and laying on the ground. I got lost a couple of times (even holding a map of the course did not help). And I could not where hole 17 started.

birdie on hole 2.

So, after walking around in the sun, I played their other course, Rolling Meadows. I played much better. Getting a couple of birdies. But I lost my records when the stupid phone hung on me and I had to power it off. It seems that someone with the same first name and last initial as I do had a skip ace…

Afterwards, I ate at Estancia Churrascaria. The place was pretty good. I started off with the salad buffet which had items like mozzarella cheese, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm, and sun-dried tomatoes. But I have to admit that the selection was rather small. Not that it mattered, of course. I came here for the meat.

They had many different types of meats to choose from. And most of them were tasty. I am not usually a fan of chicken legs, but the one I had was savory. The lamb was not too gamy. The sausage was not too bad. But the tenderloin was far too overcooked and dry.

There were two sides that I liked. The fried plantains were sweet and creamy. And the mini pop-over muffins were excellent! Certainly the best part of the meal. I will definitely have to try making something like that at home…
