I have recently acquired a 1994 Ford Aspire (its not a car yet, but it wants to be one someday), once again paid for with beer. This will be the second vehicle I have traded beer for.

The car is in decent condition but lacking a key. Hot wiring it to run was the easy part, but the steering wheel lock really held me back. I had to disassemble the steering column to remove the ignition to allow me to steer. I have no idea how car thieves manage to release that lock so quickly since it took me well over an hour. If someone could enlighten me, feel free. I have replaced the steering column with one with a key so I can use the car normally. Thanks to this I now have a unused airbag that I plan to have some fun with. If you have any ideas other than just blowing it up, I’d love to hear them.

Bryce and I found a dry spot at a local school to hit a few golf balls to warm up for the coming season. Finding them again wasn’t easy by any means, but it made it interesting.

We later moved to the Keystone where there was a lot less snow. It was easier to find the balls, but actually retrieving them was not as easy.

We used my car as a golf cart to navigate our way through the mess of a field.

When it was all over, my five iron was the only casualty. After contacting the ball the head of the club broke off and flew into the distance. I guess I was due for a new one anyways.
