Pinehurst Day One Surprise

The first day of our trip to Pinehurst was intended to be spent in the car, eagerly anticipating a Monday morning start of the golfing fun. However, my lead foot and relatively traffic-free roads allowed us to arrive in time to sneak in an afternoon round. Rather unknowingly, we chose The Legacy. I asked Amy to pick something close to our hotel, and it just happened to be this Nicklaus gem. The greens were shockingly slow, but we played well and, for $37, this little bonus was the perfect way to start our trip - followed by a nice rare Ahi steak at Bonefish.

More to follow, but check out some of the cool Legacy pics here.

Oh - our hotel is the Hampton Inn and Suites. It's only about two years old, spacious, comfortable and clean. But, it feels like we're in The Shining - I think we're the only people here. Fortunately, this week is all play and no work, so Jared will not be a dull boy.
Redrum; Flog.

And finally, not sure if it's ever been said before, but I might have coined a new phrase:

"Amy, golf is a game of good shots and better excuses." - after Amy took a mulligan because she heard someone talking in the distance.

Cheers!
