This is the week of the AT&T Pro-Am Golf Tournement in Pebble Beach.  These pictures

were taken on the Pebble Beach Golf course on February 6, 2007. golf course with Point Lobos in background The setting is spectacular

The 18th hole is directly in front of the Pebble Beach Lodge.  As we stood near there yesterday,

a pro came along wearing a pale blue sweater.  It was Mike Weir from Canada, apparently

having a pretty good day. mike weir approaches 18th holemike weir and group approachcaddy and weir look over the hole

The atmosphere was quiet for the practice rounds.  That is what makes the early

part of the week the best time to go over there and walk around.weir standing next to the trapweir takes his shotthe 18th hole

After Weir finished his round, he was interviewed by the press. interview with the pressLater in the afternoon,

 clouds seemed to be moving in.  Rain has been predicted

for the next three days, and maybe into the weekend. 

 I'm not sure how that will affect tournement events.clouds gathering to the west

tournement, but was busy searching for his dinner.white egret looks for worms
