I feel like I'm not the only teen whose summer gets drab around mid-July. I've gone to the beach. Everyone seems to be out of town. I'm not out of town yet, or I just got back. Also it's HOT. I feel like a bum sitting inside coveting cool air and TV, but just walking outside is almost unbearable.

No, I don't have a magical air cooling bubble (although that would be awesome). When the heat cuts a little, I have a little idea. Try frisbee golf. Frolf is a sport that can be played at many golf courses around the metro area. Theodore Wirth has an 18-hole golf course. If you live in the Cities, Wabun Park by Minnehaha falls has nine holes (of mostly shade, in case you're interested). Frisbees can be purchased at Play it Again sports, online, or another sports utility store. They cost between $5 and $20.

Frisbee golf is almost just like regular golf, but the game goes faster. You can play it with a big group of friends or by yourself. It's a challenge at first, throwing the disc hard enough or in my case, in the right direction. But it's fun. Good old outside, not watching TV, hanging with your friends, doing something different fun.

Also it's fun to say frolf. Frolf. Frolf. Frolf.
