I gave myself one day to "recreate" while out in Arizona and boy what a day it was. I was exhausted from the long day of shooting and chasing the light at the Grand Canyon and Sedona the previous day so I was enjoying my morning coffee in my hotel room just browsing the Arizona Golf magazine. Anyone close to me knows I'm a golfer - almost to a fault :-)
So I flip the page to the TPC Scottsdale ad and my interest perks up because I know the PGA tour is due there in two weeks. I'm thinking no way I'll be able to get on that track right? So what the hey I call and they say come on out and they can put me with a twosome. So I'm getting pretty excited about playing a tour quality course. (Ask any true golfer what that feeling is like going to play a strange course and just multiply that by about 4.)
So I rent clubs, go to the range, hit some shots - not too bad for rentals- and I'm told my group will be along in a few minutes. Cool . . . I'm ready. What happened next I was NOT ready for. The actor (aka "Mr. Peterman" of Seinfeld fame) John O'Hurley and his wife Lisa walk up to me and introduce themselves.
I'll be spending the next 4 hours with them. Yes you read it right. And guess what? I actually took a camera along. Whodathunkit? Thanks to our caddy "Chelsea" for the shot.
We had a great day which I'll remember forever. My golf game was "forgettable" that day but for once in my life it just didn't seem to matter. They are truly nice people and great golfers especially his wife Lisa.
I had no trouble remembering her name because of my lovely bride Lisa :-)
