These 4 people have died and gone to heaven. Well they haven't died but they are in heaven. Golfers Heaven. Augusta National - home of The Masters Golf Tournament.
If I close my eyes right now I can smell the pine straw, I can taste a pimento cheese sandwich, I can feel the thick carpet of grass under my feet.
I can not begin to tell you what it feels like to see these giants of the game so close you could reach out and touch them. So engaging with the patrons. Such gentlemen. Ahhh. In case you don't know it's Masters Week. We will again be there in spirit while we watch each and every moment unfold before us on TV. In the meantime I better get out my pimento cheese spread AND green jacket martini recipes.
Holy Moly! You're there? In Augusta? Rubbing elbows with Arnie, Jack, Gary? Wow! I don't play golf, but love to watch the game on TV, especially The Masters because the course and grounds are so beautiful. Enjoy...what's the deal with pimento cheese spread? I love that stuff. I like to spread it on rye toast with sliced green pimento stuffed olives...oh yum!

No place like Augusta National, Sister. Palmer, Player, and Nicklaus - giants of the game and gentlemen and sportsmen in every sense of the word. Enjoying the memories, sights, sounds and smells with you and Chris and Steve.
