The exercise:

Write a four line poem about: a battle.

Kat and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary by taking the boys for a drive up to Apex Mountain to go for a hike and try to escape the smoke for a little while. Mission mostly successful.

They are calling for rain tomorrow. It is our intention, as a family, to do a celebratory rain dance in the back yard.

The exercise:

Write about: golfing.

A friend of Kat's is in town for a few days with her family. We met up with them at the beach last night but I stayed home tonight because I am old and get tired easily and two work nights in a row is too much for me.

Anyway, they went mini golfing at LocoLanding, so that's where the prompt was uncovered.
