I rode shotgun while Brett drove part
of the trip. |
We left bright and early this morning for Shreveport, Louisiana. It was a five and a half hour drive, which took about seven hours with the trailer, so we rolled in around 2 p.m. Brett, Bridget, Landon and I drove together again. Bridget insists that there constantly be music playing in the car. Silence or even a radio commercial is unacceptable, so she started out as DJ. We ended up listening to a bunch of Bill Engvall skits and were dying laughing!
When we finally rolled up to Shreveport, we unloaded a little and set up HQ, which is larger than Horseshoe Bay, but not big enough for the whole team to hang out in. Thankfully there is a large sitting room with three wall-mounted flat screens in it, a popcorn machine and coffee right next door to our HQ. Not to mention that there is a copier five paces from the tables where our computers are (aka a comms dream come true)! Freyman is our TD this week and he has been doing tournaments for years now, so he was fully prepared with yardages, time par and volunteer information for Michael and I. It was so much more efficient that it normally is on our first set-up day.

| Our dinner receipt: 9 people for $0.27. |
Around 5:30 p.m. we went to meet our host family for the week. Bridget, Tori and I are all staying together with the Allen's, a really sweet couple who lives on No. 5 green. It's a beautiful house complete with pool and spa! Right now only Mrs. Allen is home and she gave us the grand tour and invited our entire team over for dinner on Tuesday for a relaxing night by the pool. We went to dinner with the team at this yummy Cajun place. Our meal was complimentary, but Freyman wanted to leave a tip, so he asked our waitress to charge something really inexpensive, like a soda, so that he could leave a tip on the credit card. She charged us for a cube of cheese, so it looked like a group of nine ate a cube of cheese for $0.27. High rollers, right?
