Ultimate Frisbee notes

So, I now have 3 opportunities for Ultimate in a week. 4, if I could ever make a Saturday. There is the League on Wednesday in Catonsville, pickup on Thursday in Annapolis, and pickup on Sunday in Prince Frederick. I just found the Prince Frederick 2 weeks ago and I'm pretty excited because its the closest venue I've found since we moved to Calvert Cnty.
On the League front, we are 2-1. Lost our first game last night. I can say that my poor play was not alone. For a bunch of 30-40 somethings there were a lot of bad drops and throws. Smart play has been the reason for the dominant wins from the first 2 weeks. I think that our team is at least 10 years older than the average of the other teams. Nonetheless, I'm still not in ultimate shape like I used to be. I walk alot more and my knees hurt this morning. Well, I did just turn 35.

Contractor update

Last night we met the guys from J Squared again. This time the draftsman made it to the house. We still need to wait a few weeks for a price quote. The main bummer was they could not come up with a good way to put a door at the bottom of the steps without some major renovation.

Then there was Hershey



Then we went to Hershey park. We left the baby behind because it was so hot. We felt bad at first for not bringing her, but after the temperature reached the high 90's, we knew we made the right call. I haven't been there in about 30 years. They had some good coasters and the kids had a lot of fun. It would be worth going again. I would say I liked more than Kings Dominion or Six Flags which are also close. Nate and Karen went on this ride ini the pictures. Nate had no idea what would happen or how high. He was not happy.

Dutch Wonderland






Man, it is hot here. We're on holiday with the Kaputa clan this extended weekend. Last trip, we went camping in July and were miserably hot. So, this time we went in June and got a cabin with AC. It's still 95 degrees. Went to Dutch Wonderland on Saturday when we arrived. Heres a few photos.

First Contractor

Met the first contractor for the addition. Josh from J Square. Seemed nice, but hard to say much else. He had some questions for me because they are checking a job out in AA county. The hazard of working at the Permits and Inspections office. We had some bad storms come through tonight and the draftsman couldn't be there. So, they will come back again next week.
On another note, Ultimate Frisbee league was supposed to start tonight and I couldnt make the first game. But they cancelled it anyway because of weather. So I didn't miss out :)

Turning out to be a Heck of a Day

So, it starts out that my brother had an incident last weekend and needs a lawyer. Then, me and my mom forgot that she is taking the dog for the week (we are going on a trip this weekend). So, she nicely decides to fly by my house after she picks up Maryna to get the dog. I then find out that my Mother-in-Law, who is watching the kids at our house, does not have a car seat for Nate. (it's in Karen's car. another story). Later I call my mom with a name and number for a lawyer for my brother. Turns out her car broke down in the middle of the Bay Bridge and was getting towed. Karen is going to the dentist tonight. She might want to watch herself tonight. At least I'm leaving early. (a consquence of the no car seat thing :/ )
