Today I had the privilege of playing every golfer’s dream course  – Augusta National. While I did not play as well as I would have liked as you can tell from the pictures it was a beautiful day and who can complain when you’re on God’s gift to golf!

The course seems to be weathering the cold winter well and there are a few new, yet subtle changes. In addition to the new practice grounds from last year, the 11th and 17th greens have been resurfaced.

Take a look at the ALBUM I created and enjoy. As you well know it is a special place!

Here are pictures of Augusta under a blanket of snow in 2010 and here are my pictures from earlier in 2010.
