And So It Goes

The weather is going to be mild for a few more days.  The golfers will likely be out in force.  But, the temps are forecasted to drop and maybe a few snow showers will be around towards the end of next week.  So you might as well plan on coming to lunch.  Plus I've talked to one of the casino hosts about doing something for our group since we are faithful winter time lunch customers.  I'm not sure what they will or can do but they agreed to send someone to see us on Thursday.

Have you been watching the Phoenix Open?  I think this is one tournament that is always fun to watch, especially when you throw the 16th hole.  While they have tried too tame things down there it is still pretty rowdy.  Yesterday the one day attendance for the event was announced at 201,600 (there's only 230,000 residents in Scottsdale).  They say they are shooting for the all time record for a one day sporting event of 220,000 held by the Indy 500.  Does anyone doubt they will break it someday?  This year is the 20th anniversary of Tiger's ace on #16.  They brought in an "Iron Byron" with the moniker of Elrod, and on the 5th attempt it made an ace.  I think I may try to find one for the 2016 member tournament.

See ya,
