Boy have we had a mixed bag of weather here at Augusta today. Started off warm (mid 70’s) and overcast, changed to cloudy and cool, then to rain. then to strong winds and thunder storms. They even sounded the horn to stop play for about 45 minutes. Not the best day for the Masters. Fortunately I did buy an umbrella before I hit the course but still got wet.
It was however everything I expected the Masters to be. Some great golf, an opportunity to see the players up close and of course I got a good workout sloshing through the mud. Today was a bit more tiring than playing a round. At least I would be riding.
Augusta is not the kind of town to bring a non golf enthusiast to. Not many things to do except get lost going from one place to another. I will make the best out of tomorrow for the final round. I plan to spend more time sitting and less time walking the course. I discovered late this afternoon that one can enjoy a golf tournament just as much or more by finding a good spot and planting ones self. That way you get to see all the payers without moving.
Most of you probably watched the 3rd round on T.V. today so I wont bore you with the play by play. Tomorrow should prove to be quite challenging. The weather is slated to be cool, low to mid 60’s. That would be great for Ocean City wouldn’t it? The good news? No rain, I hope. Don’t forget to tune in.
I think I am about ready to sign off and prepare for tomorrow by getting a good nights sleep.
Don’t forget to drive carefully and cross at market crosswalks only.
