I’m in Texas and I can prove it. “The stars at night are big and bright…”
A Great Day in New Mexico
I got up early this morning and hit the road, heading east on the I-40 from Flagstaff on my way to New Mexico. It’s my first time visiting the state, so I was excited about the new adventure. The drive was pretty long and boring. Lots of Native American trading posts and Route 66-related marketing.... Continue Reading →
Say what? There’s a NEW Mexico now?!?
How One Kickoff Led to Two Touchdowns in Arizona
As I was driving toward my motel in the Phoenix area last night, I think it was fitting that I drove right past the University of Phoenix stadium–where so many big “kickoffs” have happened in recent years (Super Bowls, Fiesta Bowls, etc.). After all I was kicking off my own trip. I hit the road... Continue Reading →

The Plan…
I know I am probably jinxing myself by posting this right now, but as the dust has settled and the pieces have fallen into place, my road trip is pretty well planned out.

Several times throughout the year, they organize these group events for fellow GKers to get together for some good times and good golf. Though I’ve been a member of the site for many years, I’ve really gotten more... Continue Reading →
Well, The City of Industry Does Have Two Things Going for It…And Their Names Are Ike and Babe!
I took the day off from work yesterday just to take advantage of the “Mega Monday” deals at Industry Hills. I had first played the Zaharias course back in March and absolutely fell in love with the layout. I couldn’t wait to play the Eisenhower course next. Most everyone I’ve talked to prefers Ike over...

Course Review: Menifee Lakes Country Club (Lakes Course)
With the big storm on Friday, I decided not to book anything for Saturday morning. I figured I’d get up, see what the weather was looking like and then make my decision. When I got up and looked outside, there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. It was another good day for golf! I ended... Continue Reading →
