It all started back in July 2013 when the significant other told me he got chosen in the lottery for Masters tickets for the Wednesday practice and Par 3 tournament. Wooo hooo! What an ideal day for first-timers since that is the day you can take photos and you might get lucky with an autograph or two. Because once tournament play begins on Thursday, you can forget about those things.
Today, on the eve of our Masters experience, we played The Landing, which is one of six courses at the Reynolds Plantation in Lake Oconee, Georgia. And since it's been raining so hard in Georgia (the Monday Masters patrons were out of luck yesterday - so I heard - because of all the rain), it was cart-path only. These mainland courses are much tougher than the ones we duffers are used to in Hawaii. Here, the fairways are sticky and the greens are slick, so playing without carts presented quite a challenge. But we had a great time, and are very much looking forward to our visit to Augusta National tomorrow. Photos to come in a few days.
