birthday idea Our brains are a fascinating thing. There is so much stuff stored up there. You know the weird phenomenon of magically remembering something you had been trying to figure out hours sometimes days after deciding you just couldn’t remember. The other day I was trying to remember the name of a friend’s new girlfriend. At the time when it counted, it wasn’t popping into my head. I greeted her with a Hey, how you doing. The next night while driving to a sport’s bar it popped into my head. Don’t know where it came from just a poof and there the name was.

The same can be said for trying to figure out birthday ideas. This weekend my dad had a birthday. Unfortunately he lives out of state but my brother lives near him. He called me trying to think of a birthday idea they could do together. At the time all that was coming to mind was getting some food and going to a movie. My dad loves golfing but for whatever reason this obvious fact escaped the birthday ideas we were coming up with. Then after we hung up, I remembered a great putting golf placed. It is more like actual golf then a windmill spinning putt putt course housed next a very nice Par-3. My brother took the birthday idea and ran with it. He said they had a lot of fun,
