Drip...Drip...Drip...

...this is the sound the air makes in the Carolina's in June. Can you imagine what it will sound like in mid August. Amazing people must live there or no one moves in July and August. And by not moving I mean putting one foot in front of the other. It's possible they're a bit crazy there as well but maybe no one plays golf after 6am in the morning.

We were standing on the practice tee before one round of the North Carolina Senior Open when one of the players ask, "So, I'm not scientific or an expert on weather but, is it possible to have more than 100% humidity?" The answer, "YES!"

Arriving back in NorCal to a nice cool breeze in the late evening...oh ya I began drying out immediately. After a few minutes I became completely dehydrated with the greatest of joy. Not really but it was so nice not to take your shower with you.

Check out the schedule below and you will notice that I'm in the NorCal area through July and August for most of my tournaments. I have some other travels that will take me to Nicaragua but as for tournaments I will be playing the Pepsi Tour and Champions Tour events through late August.

This means that many of you NorCal folks that have been asking me about coming out to watch an event...you can do this. I would personally consider one of the two day events in Napa or Fairfield. Those are close by and I believe you can even rent a cart and drive along. That would be cool. Of course for you Vacaville fans the Fairfield course is maybe 10 - 12 minutes away. I don't think I can get much closer than this.

The Sunbelt Tour has been wonderful. Don and Yvonne Barnes are great folks who have been very encouraging. I've played with some fabulous players and excellent people on this tour and look forward to returning in September to the Sunbelt Tour.

Play early, stay late, enjoy the day on God's creation.
