Masters - In the White Mountains -there's Snow golf -like snow golf

By
Managing Real Estate Broker with Alpine Lakes Real Estate Inc., NHRE# 02863

Working out the kinks in my swing - while wearing Bean Boots in the mud. I started watching the master but needed some fresh air, and the golf bug bit me. Watching those guys play inspired me to get ready for the senior tour. My wife tells me to go...go ahead go try to play professional golf - you're not that good honey!  April 10th 2011 Woodstock New Hampshire frozen pond, snowy field and the masters are on.

     P.S. my hook has returned...it was a long winter, and the ski area is open till next Sunday/

Sharon...I agree royalties on L.L.Bean golf boots for the nor-easta's - would be perfect. (or spikes on boots would do).
