"Colbert Hills Drive! Turn here, Mom!" |
That may seem obvious, but I take my navigation duties seriously. Especially when Mom is driving. A-hem.
We had a good look around when we got up there:
That's the Colbert Hills clubhouse in the background. There's a nice restaurant in there called "Colbert's". Jim Colbert is a famous PGA golfer - and a K-State grad! (Go, 'Cats!) My dad met him one time when he was having a meal in the restaurant and said he was a very nice guy. Anyone OK in my dad's book is OK with me! I wondered if he was around ... I'd like to meet him!
"Let's go look for Mr. Jim Colbert, Mom!" |
We looked over by the indoor practice facility for the KSU golf team first:
"Really? Over there? Thanks!" |
You aren't going to believe this - but I found him! Check out these pix:
It was really cool meeting him. Kind of a quiet guy; didn't make any sudden moves. I like that in people.
We did a little more exploring...
I had a great time. Mom said we can go back again soon. Maybe my new friend Mr. Jim Colbert will be there next time, too!
Happy Friday, everyone!
Play bows,
Zim
Zim we are so pleased you didn't take a leak on the statue that would have been what I would have done. Have a fabulous Friday.

well he does seem like a nice guy. we aren't big on sudden moves either.
ReplyDeleteWhat a finish to the week Zim. I bet he was so quiet cuz he was in awe that he was in the presence of the Zim Master. You are a legend, even in my part of the world. Have a beautiful weekend.

That looks like a fun trip and even nicer to make a new friend. Have a fun weekend :)xx
ReplyDeleteThat looks super fun! He is a really nice guy. I think Star would like him b/c she's kinda shy and likes when people move slowly.

What a beautiful area; I will have to ask my hubby who is a golfer if he recognizes the name. Looks like you are having great weather.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!

Zim, it is so cool that you live across from Little Kitten Creek! we love that name :D You know, our mom could use your navigation skills too, as we're all backseat drivers, mol! Say, Mr. Colbert looks like our kind of guy! Have a great weekend!

We're glad you got to meet Jim Colbert Zim! That's pretty cool! We noticed that your mom's car was the only car there. Everyone must have such big clubs they need a truck or SUV to golf there.
ReplyDeleteGotta say Zimmerz, good restraint on your part to not empty the old tank on that Mr Colbert dude! Glad you and Mom had another great adventure, paw pats, Savannah
