I chronicled Thursday and Friday of my birthday weekend, but I still had plenty of golf in store for Saturday and Sunday, so here we go. In true Nomad style, Thursday was spent in Ventura County and Friday down in Carlsbad. Saturday found me headed east into the Coachella Valley and Sunday I was in... Continue Reading →
Course Review: The Legends Golf Club at Temeku Hills
This morning was a pleasant start to what should be a memorable extended weekend for me. I got out early to get a quick morning round at The Legends Golf Club at Temeku Hills in beautiful Temecula.
