From my iPhone:
6:09am – Im currently on interstate 20 heading for Augusta National with about 140 miles to go.
Phones are not allowed on the grounds so I wont be updating during todays practice round.
The fantasy foursome has assembled. We are in Atlanta heading to MLB opening night with the Braves / Cubs.
How many billions of golf forum threads titled “who is your dream foursome” are there? PGA.com did it and as well as every golf forum ever known to man. Most people put Tiger, Jack, Arnie and themselves as their dream foursome. I jokingly put myself, Anna Rawson, a witness and a justice of the peace in mine, but that is not the dream foursome I’m talking about today.
My Dream Foursome MLB Opening Day
Tomorrow I jump on a flight to Atlanta. I land at 2:10 pm. By 4:00pm I’ll be at opening day of the Major League Baseball season where the Atlanta Braves take on the Chicago Cubs. Sitting with me at the game will be the other three gentlemen in my dream foursome and the three most important and meaningful male figures in my world: my dad, my son and my all time best friend. The baseball game is just a warm up.
My Dream Foursome At Augusta National
Tuesday morning my dream foursome will be attending the Tuesday Masters practice round at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. It will by my first time there, and I was thrilled to win the ticket lottery and be able to take my dad, who I’ve enjoyed many 1000’s of rounds of golf with as well my son. My best friend (and long lost brother) Alan rounds out the list. Alan and I have been pals since the beginning of time. We were next door neighbors when we were small children.
Alan has been to the practice round so he’ll be a great tour guide. To have he and I looking at Hogan bridge, Rae’s Creek, Amen Corner, discussing Masters history and talking about Bobby Jones will be absolutely spectacular. I just can’t wait.
Happy Easter to all my friends, family and HOG readers! The title says NO GOLF for a couple of reasons.
1. Woke up this morning to four inches of snow on the ground. So no golf.
2. No golf on TV. No PGA Tour. See my previous post…
By the way, what’s with the snow? Did the Easter bunny come out of his hole and see his shadow this morning, meaning four more weeks of winter? Isn’t that how that thing works?
