A Rare Outing

Doug came home earlier in the week and said that he had read that the perfect outdoor social distancing activity was miniature golf.  Cam and I were both in favor of trying it, so today we headed to Paige's Crossing in Columbia City.  Doug had never been there, but Cam and I had enjoyed it last summer.  We decided to bring our own putters just in case, but probably wouldn't have needed them.

We played course A first and Doug quickly jumped out to the lead.  Cam and I figured that we would be able to catch him, but that wasn't the case.  Doug played extremely well leaving Cam and I in the dust.  According to Doug it was the biggest margin of victory in our miniature golf history.  He was probably correct as he beat me by twelve strokes and Cam by ten.  Cameron chose course B for the second round and Doug was once again victorious.  Thankfully, it was a lot closer this time and he needed a career hole in one to beat Cameron by one.  Before we left Paige's Crossing we called Mad Anthony's to order lunch.  We hadn't eaten there since before the pandemic began.  Doug was happy to get a jambalaya pizza while Cam and I chose unwraps.  Doug was even able to pick up a growler of Summer Daze to go.

The rest of the day was a quiet one.  Meg called to let me know that they were going to try Bub's for dinner.  Brett had to work late, so he agreed to meet them at the Chocolate Mousse for dessert.  Cal worked at Tippy and then went to David's for the day.  Cameron got in two rounds of nine holes at Maxwelton by playing two separate balls on the front.  He met up with two other guys playing by themselves and agreed to join them.  Tonight my parents came up for a game of croquet which featured Grandpa Cutes making a career shot to knock out Doug only to rebound himself through a wicket ending his run at becoming champion.  It was a great way to end a fun day.
