The weekend at Barton Creek was another great one. We drove down Friday night and barely made our reservation for dinner in the dining room. We had a fabulous 4 course dinner and shared a bottle of wine. Charles Krug I think. It was a light and tasty cab.

Saturday we headed Austin to do some mountain biking. We first stopped at 360 Cycleworks because we forgot water bottles. I think my better half was almost sold on a new bike. Luckily, we got outta there purchasing only a shirt for me. Funny how that worked out...

The concierge suggested a trail just south of downtown. It was a 10 mile loop. The ride was a little congested- there were runners/walkers/dogs everywhere. It made for a very slow ride, but it was an excellent opportunity to check out the scenery and do some people watching.

After the ride, we headed back to the hotel to make our tee time on the Fazio Foothills course. We only got 9 holes in because the course was so crowded. Probably because of the great weather. So we jumped off and headed to dinner with my sister. The dinner was fun- got to catch up with my sister, brother in law, and two nephews. And they even got me a birthday cake and present (UT Hat- Yea!!)

Sunday we had another tee time on the Fazio Canyons course. I had never played this course before, but my other half has. It was a beautiful course. We were assigned a ForeCaddy for the round since there were no Barton Creek members in our foresome. It was fun to have this guy chasing all of my horrible shots. He was also very helpful at putting tips. I think he gave the others in the group club suggestions as well. I didn't get these- probably because there is no method to my golf madness. The round was very enjoyable, but a little long. The couple we played with were members of the Owners Club. They were staying in Austin for a week and had two tee times a day! That's some serious golfing.

So once we were finished with the round, we headed to Jim Bob's lounge for some early dinner and headed home. We missed most of the Super Bowl, but from what I hear, we didn't hear much.
