I was all set to tell you about how much luck I've enjoyed since leaving home on this trip. I mentioned before how I was able to gamble for 2 days in Atlantic City using THEIR money. Of course I did dip into my own funds on day 3. We made it the rest of the trip w/o incident, and arrived to find our unit was a beautiful one-bedroom apartment with an ocean view. Check this out...
Okay, so it's not an UNobstructed view, but hey, by the look of that short little building, it could collapse any day now! And my good luck peaked when I put on my golf outfit this morning and reached inside my vest pocket to find...$129 US (woohoo...don't ya just love 'found money'). Then...well, then we went to play golf at Wicked Stick. After a few holes in torrential rain, we decided it was time to put away the lightening rods and pack it in. We got a rain check (no really...now I know where that term came from), so will return on Wednesday to play 9 more holes. Tomorrow it's Indigo Creek...and let's hope for better weather. Although they do say the odds are one in a million that you'll get struck by lightening...hmmm....that would be my luck!!!
WHAT I LEARNED SO FAR THIS TRIP: You just can't have blind faith in a GPS. Especially one that hasn't had the maps updated for a few years!! After a little incident in/around Boston, we had some real issues in North Carolina. There was one point that the "dash bitch" almost found herself re-cal-cu-lat-ing on the side of the I-95, but thanks to an old fashioned Rand McNally, we were able to find our way. And of course, using our own brains once in a while has proven helpful!!
