Question: since you like golf-colonial? lame or still packed with tradition?
Answer: To be honest, I've only been to the Colonial twice in my lifetime. The first time, I was probably 13 or 14 years old. The second time was two years ago. Both times were great! I love the fact that the Colonial has been played on the same course since the 40's. The only course that has had a tournament played longer is The Masters at Augusta. That in itself just oozes tradition. The course design, unlike almost every other course in the USA, has been relatively unchanged. Most courses get longer and longer and longer to keep up with the technology that's allowing golfers to overpower them. Not the Colonial. They keep it the same and it's still plenty hard. One of the hardest holes on the PGA Tour is at the Colonial. Sure, things will change and the tournament will change, but the game is all about tradition and that tradition will hold true at the Colonial.
How bored are you now? I'm sure most people reading this are about as interested in golf as I am in knitting. No hating on those that love to knit, but it's just not what makes me go.
That being said, I wanted to share a few pictures I've taken. I absolutely love photography, but I don't have the time to get out and take the pics. Most of my pictures come from trips to the mountains. Did I mention how much I love Colorado? It is, in my opinion, the most wonderful place on God's green earth! I was born there, but only stayed a short time. I get back as often as I can to fish, hike, ride mountain bikes and, you guessed it, play golf. I'm going in August to visit my best friend and do at three of the above-mentioned activities. Enjoy the pics of my favorite place!
