[Delaware Golf]

It might be the time I got to spend with Ted on the range...priceless. If you haven't made the trip to the swamp; go now.

...but that's not the best moment...

Spending time at Lynn's home with Lynn, Carol, and Bagger's family was so much fun. Watching video, talking G.O.L.F., and making swings on the bosu ball. Although Lynn and Carol were wonderful, gracious hosts, this wasn't the best moment...

Working with Lynn and Bagger's dad on Saturday, where I tried a fantastic new putting stroke and completely transformed my bunker game. This was good too, but not quite it...

The moment on the range Mon. morning when something finally popped out of the incubator and I felt myself clear the right hip and drive pp#3 down, out, and forward through the ball...that was really great, but not quite the best moment...

The best moment of the trip was without question the entire day at Augusta on Friday. Listening to audio of Homer during the drive over, seeing the beautiful course for the first time, watching the worlds best golfers on one of the greatest stages in golf, the 'mento cheese samich' , following Gary Player for several holes, and being led around the course by Lynn, who's a masterful tour guide by the way, was unforgettable.

The absolute best part of the day, however, had to be the tour of the Augusta National clubhouse...you heard me right, THE CLUBHOUSE! Lynn absolutely made it happen on Friday: Accompanied by an Augusta National member, during the tour we passed not one, not two, but three security guards! The last security guard even had to ask a special guest if we could take a peek into the Champions Locker Room; we received the go ahead, so in we went. There were the lockers of so many great, past Masters champions, the trophy, and that special guest, Mr. Billy Casper, watching the Masters on TV!! After shaking his hand and saying hello, Yoda promptly started up a conversation with Billy, and he chatted with us for about 15 minutes telling us stories and giving us a little putting lesson. It was absolutely the most incredible day (and week) of golf and G.O.L.F. of my life.

Thanks again, Lynn; I had a ball!

P.S. Looking forward to you standing there inside the ropes on the practice tee with one of your students this time next year!

When the stories are told well...sometimes it's just like being there.

Thanks Ben...
