Maggotx VA Trip

Maggotx and Mrs. X went on a two day sojourn to VA to watch Field Hockey Teams do Battle in the scathing heat of the Virginia Shenandoah valley.  JMU had a very nice field with a great view of the mountains....impressive...





We stayed at a gorgeous brand new Residence Inn by Marriott ....really cool room layout...complete with LG flatscreen and iHome wake-up alarm. 





While in VA we managed to get a round of Disc Golf at the beautiful Westover DG course in Harrisonburg VA.  This was a really nicely laid out suburban park.  Nice teeboxes, baskets, the layout flowed well and was easy to follow.  Luckily it was hot when we [played and there were few people walking about.  It could be a problem on busy days.  But I would give it a 4.5 out of 5.  Nice elevation changes and some beautiful views of the mountains.  pics below:

It was nice visiting with the VA branch of the Maggotx Clan.  Hi to Ali, Wes & Tyler, The Morgster and Gornstein and to all of your many familiars, especially RatTrick the Blind Wacko-Dog  (seen below)

hahaha Rat Trick is a little scary looking. Looks like he is smoking a pipe also. Weird.

Haha but everything else looks like a lot of fun. You didnt mention the lovely scent your room had. It was that of an Abercrombie and Fitch model haha

Glad to see u'all had a grrreat time! I might have missed how the FH games ended up. And of course you found a DG course! Looks like a fun layout, too! The Maggotx's sure do pack a lot in to a short trip...I guess MX is good at packing!

Hey Heather, I'm glad to see you are back in the game! How did the team do?
Rat dog or "Ratso" as I affectionately call him is not smoking a pipe he just has a blue tongue to match his eyes.
Sorry I couldn't be there for all the fun. It turns out I had to go to the office Saturday anyway.

Juani is off from School today so I am off to watch cartoons with him.
