So it was with great trepidation that I accepted Airstream&#8217;s invitation to play in a golf scramble this morning.  Brett insisted that I play, so we got up early to do some work before catching the 7:30 bus to our 8:30 start at the Angel Fire golf course.<\/p>\n<p>Now, cruising around on an electric cart, through a beautiful golf course in the desert on a gorgeous May day is not such a bad thing.  Our early game kept us out of the highest temperatures (it was about 100 again today).  But otherwise, my golf game was 18 holes of humiliation.  I redeemed myself slightly with one lucky chip shot and a few halfway decent putts, but otherwise the other members of my team carried the weight.  Fortunately, we were playing &#8220;best ball&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"LV golf swing.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/tour.airstreamlife.com\/weblog\/LV%20golf%20swing.jpg\" width=\"380\" height=\"285\" \/><\/p>\n<p>By the end, I was a lot more appreciative of how 18 holes can wear a person out, and our team was 6 under par.  We came in third of about ten teams.  I think before I attempt to play again, I&#8217;m going to need some lessons in how to swing the club and actually hit the ball in a useful direction.<\/p>\n<p>Back at Caesar&#8217;s, we dropped by the pool to talk to Airstream people a bit in the afternoon (lots of interesting people-watching poolside).   Then we picked up our bags and departed via taxi to pick up the Nissan.  I&#8217;m pleased to report that after the transmission fluid re-fill, it drives like normal again. No charge since it was under warranty.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"LV Sams town.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/tour.airstreamlife.com\/weblog\/LV%20Sams%20town.jpg\" width=\"380\" height=\"285\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Next job was to catch up on work for a few hours.  We headed back to the Airstream, and started our working day at about 4 pm.  This has been a successful week but it has also left us with a lot of work to do.  Both Brett and I are beat.  We only got five hours sleep last night and it has been a complicated few days.  We plan to decompress tomorrow by jetskiing on Lake Mead.  I&#8217;ll have photos of that by Saturday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t golf.
