Life Lessons From Wisconsin

After spending two days in Wisconsin in the cold rain and wind, I felt it was time to write another blog. I have thought up some lessons in reflection on the last two days that might come in handy at later moments in my life (or your life), so I wanted to share them.

-The world seems a whole lot bigger from 30,000 feet in the air.
-Rain is awesome, but some people don't think so.
-Cheeseheads are too expensive.
-Irish people are cool and so are their pubs.
-Time flies when you are playing golf for twelve hours.
-A school I.D. won't get you on a flight home in Madison, WI.
-Hot tubs can save your life.
-People who only compliment their own kid, suck.
-Seeing an old friend is a good reminder of how far you have come in life.
-Turbulance is my worst nightmare.
-Ironman competitors are amazing.
-Fluffy clouds can keep you occupied for hours.
-If your arms get numb, just flex them over and over.
-New Zealand natives shouldn't try to be gangstas.
-Taking an unplayable lie is sometimes the right decision.
-Teamwork will get you anywhere you want to go.
-A day off can be a good thing.
-Always be proud of who you are and who you play for.
-Make sure you get it to the hole; playing it safe never got anyone anywhere.
-A best friend makes you feel like you mean something to somebody.
-Everyone needs a tutor at something.
-Studying on a plane is hard.
-Singing to yourself after a bad shot is the best medicine.
-To take a bike on a plane to your desired location is only $8.

That is golf tournament number one. Who knows what I'll learn next trip!
