Mike - I'm confused.  The picture you just posted looks identical to the one you use for your profile (little picture to the left under your name), except for the evergeen-looking tree to the right of the cypress. 

Are my eyes playing tricks on me?

This won't win any contests, but it's a photo I like.  My wife and me caddying for our son (12) and daughter (9) on a summer evening at Ballyhack.

Wade, if you can get your family to walk the back 9 a Ballyhack, you are my hero.  I look forward to walking with you in the spring.

Please don't mention to my kids that the back isn't walkable.  They still think it is!

This is a bit cliched, but still ok.
