Here's a few highlights from the trip. Our first stop was in Savannah where we saw this t-shirt. Kelley works for Yale University, so it was funny for us!
As promised, Kelley's photo with... uh... Barack Obama!! No, that's not cardboard! I don't know what your talking about! There was a group of sidewalk supporters.
The sunrise photo from the last post was the morning we took the ferry to Daufuskie Island to play on the Melrose course.
It was a really nice course with next to no one on it. From what we heard from the pro shops and resident golfers, the economy has really sliced the amount of tourist golfers.
Kelley was happy it was the last hole!
The next day I played Hilton Head National. There are 3 - 9 hole courses. I played the Weed and National course. It's a really nice place to play.
Then it was my birthday round at South Carolina's #1 ranked course, also ranked 52nd (if I remember correctly) in the world, Harbour Town. I've only played it on PlayStation. It's a completely different experience when you play it in person. You then realize you can't drive the ball 350 yards and reach the par 5's in 2. Although I did reach the par 5 second hole in 2!
As instructed by our fore caddy, don't hit left. If you do, just leave your ball there. This was just one of a few alligators I saw on this course.
Don't be short!
Par 3, don't be short... right... or long... That's my shot!
The famous 18th hole to the lighthouse. I totally blew this hole. It was all into the wind.
My last day I played Palmetto Dunes, Arthur Hills. Some really tough holes! Amazing homes around the course. 5 more alligators to look out for.
So we're back. My first day back on Monday... and I played golf with Kelley's dad. It was a holiday! Now I'm back in the office and getting through all the e-mails, mail, and stuff to do. Back to work! Man my boss is tough on me...
