The last few weeks of my life have been so much more fun than than I can remember. I have had a roommate that just moved to New York and he is staying with me temporarily until he closes on his own place.
I love people who can be completely spontaneous. There is something to be said for being able to just jump at an opportunity and do something. You just can't find a lot of people like that. So, I was randomly searching the message board at work on a Friday (totally uncharacteristic of me...I hardly find time to even get up and grab something to eat for lunch) when I came across tickets for the US Open for Golf. I shortly thereafter got the tickets and that evening was headed to Pennsylvania. Long trips never seem quite so long with good company.
The next day, we planted ourselves at the first par three in the course to watch the golfers.. then realized we had passes to the American Express VIP tent. This entitled us to free food and drinks, so we naturally hung out close to there the rest of the day. After a few hours, we got a little tired of watching golf and did some shopping. He got a few shirts for friends and family, I did the same. I also got my long wanted golf skirt (soon to post pic of that!).
We stayed at a ski resort that night and had a nice dinner at the hotel. Sunday we headed back to NYC.
You know how there are certain things you will always remember in your life... this is one of them. Great weekend. And the best part is that there was not any particular fancy thing that made it spectacular. I have always wanted to go see a golf open and it was fabulous. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
