There have been many wonderful things about being in Augusta for my residency and getting to go to the tournament multiple times has been one of the best. It is just amazing to drive by the course for a year and just see a wall of unkept bushes and bamboo and know what is behind the wall. It really is a very special place. Luckily, my mom and Tony got to come out this year and get in a practice round.

KJ Choi getting ready to skip it across the water at 16. After they take a few shots from the teebox, the golfers will walk up to the edge and try to skip it across the water and on to the green.
They even let caddies get in on it sometimes.

Martin Kaymer skipped it across and got a hole in one. Here he is picking it out of the cup
We got inside right at 7:45 am (15 minutes before the gates opened which gave Amy a head jump on the gift shop. I have a feeling my brother in laws will be happy.)
Sitting by the water at 16. The grass was wet enough that I had a stain that was a little embarrasing on my backside
Amy's Master's Breakfast (a bud light & moonpie)
I opted for the pimento cheese & egg salad
Wishing she stuck some of that grass in her purse so I can harvest it and grow my yard out of it.
Tom Watson's group
The grass is like carpet. Reminds me of fishing barefoot at the Dominion golf club in San Antonio when I was younger
