The Masters week: Rahm wins his first green jacket.

My obligatory, annual, "I hate Azaleas" post.

Although this weekend I did see one with yellow blooms that had a slight pink tinge in the middle of the flowers ... in all places, "Flowertown, USA."
 
And, in case you were wondering ...

I caught this one a few days ago...assume the peach crop was down in Georgia. 🤷‍♂️

They're replacing it with a berry flavored item; blue or black would be my guess with blue being a crowd favorite.



Now this pisses me off. My wife and I are going tomorrow and I have been wanting one of these for the last number of years. Just my luck.

I know a couple that's arriving today. Their plan involves edibles with the intent to hit one concession stand item after another. I've never looked to see how it's laid out. My only question was which day...where he said I've got better things to think about.
Blueberry? That'd rock.

I've been lucky to go numerous times. My dad's side of the family is from Augusta, so we always had our contacts. I only cared to go so my wife could see the landscaping. We'll watch some golf as we walk, but wanted her to see that more than anything. She'll be excited to hit the concession stands. Ona side note, our chiropractor just got on as a caddie at the National.
 
No one realizes how wide open it is until they've been there.

Azaleas suck.

I think they look great on TV one week a year, but don't like them for my yard. Definitely wide open, but the greens and elevation is where you struggle, atleast from my experience. I went one Easter Sunday after church and was in penny loafers and had to take them off and go barefoot because I kept slipping and couldn't get up the 10th fairway after starting at the green and walking it backwards.

Was this an April Fools deal? They said they were selling Peach Ice Cream yesterday. I told multiple concession people the story from here in conversation. I did not get my ice cream, because the eight stands I visited had all sold out. I was not happy.

Was it the sandwich you were ordering?
 
This post was a toss-up between phone photo and Masters. All three boys are monstrous golf guys. Oldest takes Masters week off every year, youngest is an assistant pro. Wife decided to make our Easter weekend lunch as authentic as she could, I get a huge box today, inside there's one cold storage, one dry, with Augusta staples. I don’t even want to think about the cost.
