Just another chill day in Twin Falls. I wasn’t expecting to stay here for more than a day but this place is actually very charming and there are a lot of different things to do. We will stay for a few more days and we will head towards Boise on Friday.
I played another 9 holes of golf today. The course was really great. Good condition and the views were really great. It was right in the canyon and there were several large waterfalls you can see from the course.
I played pretty well too. The last hole was a par 5 and I joked with the guys I was playing with that I’d get an eagle. For those of you that don’t golf – eagles are pretty damn rare.
I hit a great drive and then hit my 3 iron really well. Straight at the pin. The hole was on a small hill so I couldn’t see where the ball had landed. When I got up there the ball wasn’t on the green – I hit over the green on two shots!
No eagle for me but I chipped close and put it in for birdie. Not such a bad way to finish a round.
We went back to Dierke’s Lake in the afternoon and hung out there for a bit. We had watermelon, we put up the slackline, and made a few friends. I got eight steps on the slackline so that’s a new personal best.
From there it was an early night. We got back to the campsite a bit earlier than usual and we made sure we got to sleep a bit earlier too. The sun doesn’t set until around 9:30 here so it’s fairly easy to let the night get away from you.
