The final stop on my most recent Northern California trip was a visit out to Calaveras County. I actually thought I was taking care of the last two stragglers in this region, so that I could say I was fully done with the Sierra foothills east of Sacramento/Stockton/Fresno. Unfortunately, I learned just days after getting... Continue Reading →
As I mentioned in earlier reviews from this trip, I had one private club a day lined up for three days in a row. That made it pretty easy to plan the rest of the trip around.

Sunday and Monday were spent south of Sacramento in the Stockton/Lodi area. On Wednesday, I went out to Calaveras County with my friend. On Tuesday, I was on... Continue Reading →

The finale of my most recent Northern California road trip was a grand one, indeed. it was such a good get that we had to add an extra day onto the trip and drive pretty far out of the way from San Francisco to Truckee. Then, we drove all the way back home to SoCal... Continue Reading →
After all the hype of the past few months, I finally made it to 1K. Yes, I reached the milestone of 1,000 different courses played on July 17, 2018. I always like to do something special whenever I reach every 100th course (and a few of the 50s, as well). Of course, I wanted to... Continue Reading →

If you are keeping with my countdown to 1,000 courses played, this would represent #998 on the list. This was the middle round on a... Continue Reading →
