Our adventures in Idaho continued today! Graham (Sho's brother, who Taylor and I got to see in the Olympics this year) hosted a community event in downtown Ketchum, signing posters, taking pictures, and giving away snowboarding gear. It was neat to see all the support from his family, friends, and local community. We also explored a bit in Ketchum and Sun Valley, really nice little area with lots of outdoor activities. Reminds me of Park City/Sun River/Whistler/etc... Wish we had time to get up on the mountains!
Taylor being too cool for school.
Siblings! Graham, Sho, and Kailey
And yesterday... Taylor and I had the honor to participate in the annual Palmer Masters golf tournament! What is this event you ask? Well, first a course is made by participants, basically mini golf style, using whatever items one can find in the yard and garage. For example, lawn chairs, garden gnomes, snow, hoses, shovels, pipes, christmas wreath... you get the idea. We had a 9 hole course in all.
Some very important rules to note: A beverage must be in hand during play, shots must follow certain directions made by the hole's creator (under a chair, through a pipe, etc...), and distractions made by other players may or may not be allowed :) See Sho in the above pic.
And sometimes the golf balls get a little lost...
In the end Graham was the champion (third year in a row!) and donned the customary green jacket.
