Augusta

Snow fell and stuck on the ground last night with slushy results in the City. Today, the sun shines in a blue sky and the snow melted over the course of the morning. A friend wants to learn to play golf and I’m really happy about that. Golf can be weird and hard to grasp. Lots of strange moves beginning with the golf grip. Spring gets me excited about golf. For me, Spring means the Masters in Augusta, the first “major” of the year. When I think of the Masters, I think of Arnold Palmer. Nicklaus is great, sure, but since I was young, I’ve admired Palmer more than Jack. Arnold Palmer won his last PGA event in 1973. He’s 80 this year. Can’t wait to see him tee off on Thursday morning, April 9.
