I just love this!  I was lucky enough to spend Thursday-Sunday at the Masters in 2001.  On Friday we camped out for most of the day around Sixteen.

Hey Ann - On the practice round days, the golfers skip the balls across the water on #16. They walk up to the water and skip a golf ball just like you would skip a stone and skim the water.  Most of them can put the golf ball on the green!  We saw Tom Lehman pull a young man out of the crowd and let him try the shot!  It's amazing what these golfers can make a golf ball do!  Thanks for your comment and have a great April 1!

Toula!  You'll have to apply for practice round tickets one year so you can see it in person.  It would be worth the trip!  Have a great day!

In my mind, The Masters is the Official start to Spring in The South.

ENJOY!

Hey David!  You are absolutely right!   Are you a golfer?  Of course, you don't have to be a golfer to enjoy the Masters.  It is an institution around here!  Thanks for stopping by!

Gail - I have never seen such beautiful greenery as at Augusta National, especially the azaleas!  I think their grounds people are very talented!  I have some other pictures on the Augusta National blogs I have written in the last day or so.  Check them out!  Thanks!

Hey Liz - Yes, all of the photos I have posted are mine. The place is so beautiful that even an amateur photographer with a half-way decent camera can capture the beauty.  My photos are, however, from different years.  Thanks for your comment!

Sandy - You're quite welcome.  Hope you have a great day!

Hey Tad!  Minnesota is a beautiful state.  We just get greener around here a little earlier in the year than ya'll do!  Have a great day and thanks for the comment!
