Ok, first and only disc golf tournament of the season is over. I had an absolutely terrible day on the course. It didn't help that it had snowed about 2 inches over night and was cold and very windy. I was still a good time. I got to meet up with an old college buddy and even got to throw the second round with him. As always, he beat me. I can always beat him when we play casual rounds, but I don't think that I have beat him in a tournament yet. Oh well, maybe next year.
While I was off playing in the snow my wife was in Hawaii being woken up by an earthquake. She is on Oahu visiting her sister. She said the quake woke her up around seven. She thought it was thunder at first and then reallized that it had lasted way too long to be thunder. Her sister was at work and she was hime with her brother in law and the two little ones. They went upstairs to try and find out if there was a tsunami warning, but there was no power. They just hung out upstairs until they got the radio to work and found out there would be no tsunami. I tried to get through to her all day. All circuits are busy was the only response I got. She finally got through to me around 8:00pm MN time. I wasn't really worried, but there is always that unknown fear. Especially when you can't reach someone and they are on an island thousands of miles away.
On a happier note, I have been spending some quality time with my guitars. I have been spending a lot of time just learning scales and new positons, but also a lot of time just jamming. Making things fit as I go. I've been listening to a lot more Dead lately, and Jerry's guitar style is way cool. He seems to lag or be a little late, and then bam he nails it. It seems to add a certian tension to his playing. Jerry Garcia playing "Deep Elem Blues".
