Overlooking the lake, the clubhouse and the 18th green...Grandfather Golf and CC.



Please have a safe and happy 4th.  As an eye surgeon, I can't tell you how important it is to wear eye protection when using fireworks.

Here's one I took the other day at West Winds.



There actually was a double rainbow right after this was taken.

Chris Johnston made sure the flag pole was up in time for the 4th of July next to Jack's shack.. I don't have a pic, but, the whole scene looked like some western outpost, taken back in the early settler days.

A couple of final thoughts....

1.  Fireworks are just plain amazing.  The chemistry and science in that little box is mind boggling.  They bring out the kid in all of us.  Please use them safely.

2.  The world is full of wonderful places...I am proud to be an American, but would be proud to be an Englishman, or Scotsman or Irishman or Kiwi or Aussie or......July 4th should remind those of us here just how fortunate we are to be able to participate in GCA.com and that so many things in our life our good (we all have access to the internet for example)

3.  Happy Birthday to Matt Day's little guy.  Matt, I don't know you but can feel and understand your pride.  My son's name is Matt and he is a golf and golf course architecture junkie (how cool is that for me).  It just seems like yesterday that he was 5, now he is 16.

4.  May God bless each of you.

Thanks for those kind words. I'm sure as my litte bloke gets older he'll realise that having his birthday on the 4th of July is a cool date.

Fingers crossed Mitchell can get to the age of 16 and still have an interest in golf like your son does  :)

This was the view shortly after I asked my father-in-law to marry his daughter.  (A side note, I kicked his ass that day too!)

In 1973 - near the end of the Vietnam era - I took a summer job at Glencoe Golf Club north of Chicago, starting on Memorial Day Weekend.  First job - set cups and tees, but starting with raising flag.  Asst super takes me aside, points to an old guy having coffee in the clubhouse, and tells me he donates lots of money with one request - he is a WWII vet and wants to see the flag raised and then saluted.

No big deal, and I run it up the flagpole (and then down, I didn't have the holes aligned right) and then back up again, step back, come to full attention and snap off a crisp salute.  Only then did I see the entire crew behind the bushes laughing.  Funny how times change. It was hilarious to them then, but now, I bet another dozen people would probably feel compelled to salute also.

PS to Ben - I also asked my future father in law for his daughters hand from a clubhouse.  It was closed and acting as my construction office, but other than that, the story seems exactly the same!
