This past weekend, I took another little road trip up the California coast. This time I had a friend with me as we made our way up to Monarch Dunes in Nipomo for another great Greenskeeper.org event. I’ll review that outing when I post "Day 2" later this week. After all, Day 1 featured plenty of... Continue Reading →
A Little Fog. A Lot of Fun.
Sunday, I ventured up the coast a little bit for some golf and good times. The LA Golf Group I belong to was having an afternoon outing at Olivas Links in Ventura (the group’s unofficial “home” course). I’ve reviewed that course a few times in the past couple of years, so I won’t spend too... Continue Reading →
Frigid, Frosty Fun in Paso Robles
After the chilly weather I encountered yesterday in San Luis Obispo, I had a feeling today would present similar challenges as I planned to play my next course...

Now, I’ve mentioned GK a lot on this site and it has really opened up a lot more social opportunities for me when it... Continue Reading →
Another Weekend. Another Golf “Ad-Ventura.”
Well, it was another busy golf weekend and another out-of-town adventure. This weekend, I headed up to Ventura. It’s really not a super far drive for me (1:45, give or take, depending on traffic), but just far enough to feel significant. Anyway, I had signed up for an outing put on by Greenskeeper.org and the... Continue Reading →
Another Good Excuse to Head Up the Coast Again
It’s no secret I enjoy visiting California’s Central Coast for a little golf. I’ve slowly been working my way down the list to check out all the different courses, so it’s always a good excuse for an overnight trip. I headed out there this weekend for such a trip, and I am actually nearing the... Continue Reading →
Another Visit to California’s Central Coast
With a three-day President’s Day weekend, I figured it was another good excuse to get out of town for one of my little overnight golf trips. I always enjoy my trips up the Central Coast—just far enough outside of the city to feel like a true getaway, but still close enough it’s not too much... Continue Reading →
