Let's see, highs of 35 with North winds of 15-20 mph (especially fun on 
the 5 holes along the lake where the wind whistled across it lowering 
the temperature by 10 degrees  :>

But, Dave "The Weather is Beautiful" Tutelman was the hit of the day...

Scores ranged from the sandbagger Jim Preston at 90 (Just kidding Jim) to 
someone with a 187... 

I hope someone has it all down...

The next day, myself, Dave T., Steven P., and Coops trucked over to the 
beautiful Mill Creek Course only to find it closed. We hoofed it over to 
Stoney Creek in Sedalia, NC (just outside Greensboro), where Dave T. 
showed great courage in his play, Coops did a great imitation of Scott 
Simpson on the 18 th hole we played (the course's 9th), I was caught with 
16 clubs in my bag, and Steve P. rolled down the hill after he found out 
my second wife looked like a Golf Ball.

My current spouse got her VERY FIRST BIRDIE on Saturday. Steve pelted the 
port-a-potty with golf balls while I was in it...


Oh, yeah, in the spirit of RSG, both days had rounds approaching 6 hours 
in length... AND WE WERE THE ONLY ONES PLAYING!!!!

I hope Mike Stanton-Rich posts everything here about the Saturday. Both 
courses were excellent except for the shaggy greens at Bryan Park...

Oh, yeah, we finished Sunday night at a great little eatery called 
Brightwood in Whitset, NC (next town over from Sedalia). They grow their 
own beef and chicken and the menu has exactly 4 entrees. Great onion 
rings and banana pudding. We left them shaking their heads. 

To top it off, the karma of crossover of lifes was interesting, as 3 of 
the 4 of us had vested interests in the company I left in October...

LETS DO IT AGAIN REAL SOON!!!!!!

John...

====================================
Editor's note (DaveT):

John mentions two kind of cryptic things that turn out to involve my son
Jeff.

(1) "Dave T. showed great courage in his play."
	I had related a story where Jeff and I were watching golf on TV.
Some announcer had remarked, after a player near the lead had gotten away
with a risky shot, that the golfer was "playing with great courage." Jeff
said to me, "Great courage? They're just playing golf!" Sorta' puts things
in perspective.

(2) "The karma of crossover of lifes was interesting, as 3 of 
the 4 of us had vested interests in the company I left in October."
	I also mentioned this in my writeup. Neither of us said what that
interest was, nor the company. It's actually pretty interesting, so I'm
finally going to make it public.
	The company John had left was Medic Computer Systems, a software
company that makes medical practice management systems. They are HQ'd in
Raleigh, NC, and have a smaller development group in NJ.
	Coops' interest in the company is that many of his clients are
medical practices, so he has to keep up with the latest in this type of
software. In fact, he had just attended a seminar, where one of the
presenters was Medic Computer Systems.
	When John left, he had asked what they were going to do for
networking expertise, since he was the only one in the company familiar
with UNIX networking. He was told they would transfer responsibility to a
developer in NJ. When he told me that, I understood why Jeff suddenly
had to become a UNIX networking expert at his job. :-) Karma indeed!
