nicaragua

It's been three days since we got here and i{m in a cyber cafe eating coconut ice cream and i must get off now

Nicaragua

We arrived at the compound last night at around twelve thirty, fell asleep at one forty five and woke up at 8. We have been inflating basketballs all morning and it turns up we had 208 which is very good considering we had 108 last year with the church buying 50 and this year the church bought none. It didn´t take nowhere near as long to inflate the basketballs this year because not one of the pumps broke, last year all but two broke and we had to inflate them by blowing into the needles. I miss robyn a lot and i think i'll go call her now.

pop rocks and coke

I leave for nicaragua on thursday at 10 i think. We can still use all the basketballs we can get so if anyone's feeling generous you can drop some basketball's off at my house or parkview. Walmart has some for $3.44 and the re-stock today so all of them should have them.
I'm ready to leave, i haven't packed yet but i'm really looking forward to going down there.

what a shot

Tuesday was my dad's birthday so Riley, Robyn and I went out to his house to spend the afternoon with him. Before we went out to eat at baker's only sit-down eatery. we decided to play nine holes of golf. I don't play golf much and i'm nowhere near being good however on the second hole i hit the best shot i've ever seen in person and one of the best shots i've seen on tv. I was 75 yards out and for some reason my pitching wedge, sand wedge, and 9 iron are missing from my bag so of course i must use my 8 iron and tilt it. The ball went straight up and landed about 10 feet from the hole because of luck the ball had back-spin on it and rolled 10 feet into the hole. I fell on the ground in disbelief. unforunatley i shanked my drive so it was my fourth shot on a par 5 instead of my third but i'll take a birdie any day.

After we ate robyn and i went to see charlie and the chocolate factory. Besides the fact that willy wonka looked like a cross of princess lea and michael jackson it was pretty good. There were some funny one liners and even though they skipped the stupid burping scene i'd 'have to say that the original was better.
