Old School Honor Roll...

Soon one of these names will mean alot more.

Keep your eyes peeled for updates.

Now to the weekend.

Though my dermatologist may think that 2 days no sunscreen and 37 holes of golf is alot, and it is. I spent this Father's day weekend with my dad out at Torrey Pines, watching what sports writers are calling possibly the greatest golf tournament ever. Sunday we placed ourselves with some friends at the turn before going into my company's corporate booth, eating, and getting some necessities for the rest of the afternoon (to-go Beers and ice cream). We  found a spot around the 18th green, and watched as Tiger Woods birdied 18 and double fist pumped his way to a 18 hole Monday playoff with the crowd favorite Rocco Mediate.

Monday I stopped into work, checked my email, and quickly called my father to wake up. I headed back down to PB to pick him up and spent the second straight day wandering around Torrey Pines, we claimed the same spot by the green on 9 and 18 but this time we also congregated around the 10th 14th and 15th, while watching every other shot huddled around whatever neighbor had the little American Express TV. The feeling on the course that day was electric and there is no good way to describe it here in my blog.

As a tribute to father's day and how sometimes we blindly follow what our father's say,
I was tricked this weekend into not caring that B.B. King will be at the fair thursday because acorrding to my father, B.B.

So to Honor Bo, I leave you with a few memories of his career musical
