Illinois – Footgolf

September 5th, 2015

So far, I’ve managed to enter a state, enjoy my time there, and continue on, never returning. But, as I also said earlier, I suck at planning. Fortunately, I have some of the best friends a guy can ask for, and even with short notice, they’re willing to open up their home and schedule to […]
