Bill Brightly,
Thanks for the photo, but, instead of that iron going into his back pocket, I'll be going into his back pocket in a matter of hours.
Unfortunately, the forecast is calling for cool, rainy weather.
This has been one lousy spring.
Tim,
Ran will be eating at Lu Nello's in Cedar Grove.
Were I've arranged for a crazed Jersey Housewife to turn a table over on him.
You can't beat the food at Lu Nello's, it's consistently better than good.
George Pazin,
It's not me, it has to be my son or my twin brother.
Bill,
Thanks for the pictures.
That magnificent clubhouse overlooks the golf course and the mountains to the west.
It's quite a unique and beautiful setting.
The clubhouse is a Clifford Wendehack design, circa 1930.
I believe that Wendenhack did the clubhouses at Winged Foot, North Jersey and Ridgewood.
The golf course is nothing short of fabulous and the Superintendent, Cliff Moore keeps it fast and firm.
Unfortunately, the forecast is for cool, rainy weather, so Ran, TEPaul and others won't see Mountain Ridge when it's at it's best.
Ron Prichard and Cliff Moore have done and continue to do an excellent job with tree management.
The course is enormously improved in just one year.
It's probably got amongst the best set of par 4's you can find.
Of the three par 5's two are really unique. # 6 and # 17
I love # 6, it's such a great risk/reward hole, and the green expansions really improved that hole.
The 4th hole has to be an all world par 3. That green is just spectacular. I also like # 14.
I hope Ran is arriving in a Brinks truck.
I'm so excited I don't know if I'll be able to get to sleep tonight.
