A Return to Minnesota

I had a great time in Minnesota - my first time back since mid-February. I flew home Thursday night and spent Friday running errands like usual.

Saturday I helped teach a junior girls golf clinic for 250+ girls at Rush Creek in Maple Grove. It's the third time the MWGA and the Minnesota PGA Section have hosted the clinic and I'm glad I've been able to help teach all three years. After the clinic, I drove to Fox Hollow in St. Michael to watch Kelsey and Brooke play in a golf meet there. I was able to walk nine holes with them before I had to leave for Burnsville. I met David, Kevin and Marilyn Phelps and Don and Jane Peterson for dinner at Outback. Always fun to go out to eat with friends and Outback seems to be the popular hang out for us and the Peterson's.

Sunday I went to church, then we had a senior/parents retreat at church with the graduating class. I had to leave early as I had a 2 p.m. flight out of MSP to Atlanta and left with a killer headache...not a good combo for flying, but luckily I was able to sleep on the flight to Atlanta.

We arrived in ATL just as the airport closed due to weather - so my half an hour layover turned into a two hour layover. Just when I thought I'd be back in West Palm at 7:30 p.m., it turned into the normal 10 p.m. return. So much for getting back at a decent time - but it was fun to get back home - even if it was just for three short days. Back home the end of the month for Kelsey's graduation!
