My buddy and I found a good excuse in the Clay Central Park disc golf course. It offered a variety of enjoyable play, with only minor navigation and mud issues. The course meanders over nearly the entire perimeter of the park and offers a variety of holes. We played over long fairways, and through tight, forested trails. The tees are well maintained concrete starting strips, with clear course signage. It's early in the season, so many parts of the course were muddy and wet. Also, there wasn't clear signage from the hole/basket to the next tee. We got ourselves lost a few times (and played one hole out of order once). Overall, I had a lot of fun trying disc golf for the first time! And this course was a great way to do it.

You get what you pay for at this place. We rented a pontoon boat for $180 for the day. One of the…read morecheapest places around but for a reason. The staff was really friendly but also seemed overwhelmed at times. When we got on the boat we found none of the gauges worked, including the gas gauge and speedometer, which seem pretty important for driving a boat. The ladder is only two rungs and about 9 inch wide which makes getting back onto the boat very hard and painful at times. You really need to throw yourself back on the boat if you decide to go swimming. The motor also seemed under-powered and sputtered at times if you gave it too much gas. But the biggest joke is you are apparently not allowed in the lake which we were never told about from the start. I know, right? A boat is not allowed in another connected public waterway. If you are out there some rude kid on a green jet ski will ride out to you and yell at you. I asked them back at the shop if there is someone out there guarding the lake because it seemed ridiculous and we weren't sure if this guy was even affiliated with the shop. But they dejectedly said yeah it was probably the boss' son. I can only assume they don't want you on the lake because these boats could probably break down at any moment. When I told them about the broken gauges they just told me "yeah, they're all like that". Bottom line, if you are looking to save money and rent a boat that essentially just runs this is the place for you. If you want a better experience and be allowed to go into the public lake spend the extra money and go somewhere else.

As someone who was born and raised on ACC basketball in North Carolina, I thought it was weird when…read moreSyracuse joined the ACC in 2013. I still remember the Denny's comment Jim Boeheim made to reporters when Syracuse visited Providence during the team's last season in the Big East. Full quote below: "We've been coming here for 34 years. That's a lot of history. Every one of these games is a little bit of sadness for me. I know where all the good restaurants are now, and now I've got to go down to Clemson, S.C. I'm sure there's a couple of Denny's down there. They'll like me a lot now in Clemson. I like to make friends before I get down there." Source: https://collegebasketball.nbcsports.com/2013/01/10/jim-boeheim-on-the-acc-im-sure-theres-a-couple-of-dennys-down-there/. Another quote from Boeheim regarding Syracuse leaving the Big East for the ACC: "We've played St. John's for 100 years, and we played them when I was in school. We would want to play St. John's definitely without question. Yes, we'd play Georgetown. No question we'd be open to playing those two schools for sure." Source: https://www.espn.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/35444/coaches-react-to-conference-shakeup. Syracuse played in the Big East from 1979 to 2013. They're a classic Big East team, but as college sports fans know, the landscape has changed. As an ACC fan, Georgia Tech alum, and Georgia Tech men's basketball season ticket holder, I'm used to seeing Syracuse as a conference member/opponent now. I've seen Boeheim and the Orange every time they've rolled through Atlanta. Syracuse is definitely one of the brand names in college basketball so the school's addition to the ACC, which in my biased opinion is the best conference in college basketball, was a smart move and a good fit. While Syracuse has won only one NCAA tournament championship - 2003 with Carmelo Anthony - the program currently ranks in the top 10 in NCAA Division I in several metrics: total victories, win percentage, NCAA tournament appearances, NCAA tournament wins, and Final Four appearances. At the time of writing this, only Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA, and Duke have earned more NCAA tournament bids than Syracuse. Indiana, Louisville, Villanova, and Notre Dame round out the top 10 (the Irish, somewhat surprising). Elite company. The most glaring difference between Syracuse and these other teams is these other teams have won multiple NCAA tournament championships. Jim Boeheim played basketball for Syracuse from 1963 to 1966, joined the program as an assistant coach in 1969, and was named head coach in 1976. He's still Syracuse's head coach today at age 76. The 2021-2022 season will be his 46th season as head coach of the Orange. Just a crazy number. Boeheim has shown no signs of slowing down. Under his leadership, the program has earned at-large berths in the last three NCAA tournaments with two Sweet 16 appearances including this most recent year (2021) as an 11-seed. Only fellow ACC coach, Mike Krzyzewski of the Duke Blue Devils, has more years coaching and more wins than Boeheim, all-time, among Division I head coaches. Boeheim's consistency is impressive and admirable. He's definitely one of college basketball's greatest coaches. He was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2005. A living legend, Syracuse, the ACC, and the college basketball world should enjoy Boeheim while he's still coaching. He could retire any day like Roy Williams seemed to suddenly do on April 1, 2021 (not an April Fools' joke). Coach K announced his retirement on June 2, 2021 - the 2021-22 season will be K's last.

My wife (who is from the region) came across Captain Jay. His smallmouth trip was just what we were looking for! His boat sets up perfectly for people used to casting to cover / fishing ledges. His rods and reels were just right for fighting smallmouth and were all in excellent working order (not always the case with some guides). He put us on the fish and we had an excellent morning/afternoon. When one spot cooled down, he wasn't afraid of burning some gas and try somewhere else. On top of all that - Jay is a HOOT!! Even if we weren't catching fish, I imagine time on the water of the beautiful Finger Lakes with Cap'n Jay would time well spent.
