Monday and Tuesday after the Open

I woke up Monday morning feeling like I participated in a bull riding rodeo... My blisters had blisters, my feet and legs ached and I was sooooooo glad I didn't have to go anywhere. I spent the day licking (figuratively) my wounds and had a day long pampering... (Spent more time off my feet than a cheap hooker). After two naps and sleeping in the chair in front of the TV, I began to feel better late that night... Tomorrow would be more of the same. The only thing I had planned was to host a dinner at an Indian restaurant in Scottsdale and the group was small... I have never eaten Indian food so this would be a true adventure...

Tuesday left me feeling a heck of a lot better when I woke up, but I still took it easy and spent the morning re-hydrating and massaging my poor foots... Went to the chiropractor in the afternoon for a tune-up... (Sounded like kindling being broken up for the fireplace). I then came home and changed and grabbed my hosting paperwork and headed off to the Jewel of the Crown in old town Scottsdale. It's a small Indian restaurant right across the park from the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts (I had worked a Greek festival last year in that same park). Very nice people in the restaurant and only 6 of the nine people showed up (3 guys, 3 girls), so it was a small dinner party. One of the women was an Indian food aficionado so she helped us with our choices and so did the waitress. Since it was just six of us, we all ordered something different and with differing degrees of spice and heat and then shared it with everybody else. I had vegetable samosa (potato and peas deep fried in a crispy pastry) and then shrimp tandoori with extra heat...(tandoori is mild but you can order it extra spicy--vindaloo is the hottest stuff on the menu and lives up to its reputation--I will be ordering that the next time I go "Indian"). Everything was delicious and the entire evening was a success...

Home in time for another soak... (I don't understand why I'm the only one using the hot tub but I'm not complaining. someone has to take advantage of the amenities). I think one more day off the feet before I attempt a round of golf on Thursday or Friday... (will work for greens fees hit the jackpot last week with all those hours).
