Happy New Year, Minnesota Golfers!
Just thought I would rattle off a few odd notes as we Minnesotans (hopefully) have spring in our distant sights...
First off, to all you morons in Minnesota who were willing to play golf on Christmas Day just to be able to tell your great grandkids 20 years from now that you did it: Get a life... and get on a plane for some real winter golf. You know, green turf, warm sunshine, one layer of outer wear, and cold beer on an outdoor patio after your round! Here are some ideas for you.
Speaking of winter golf, we leave in a few weeks for Cabo San Lucas with a corporate meeting group. As it is one of the world's remarkable golf destinations, I'm hoping to "sneak away" for couple afternoons. If you've never had the pleasure, the fabulous courses of Cabo give you Mountain and Ocean panoramas all in one view... you will be navigating over a mountain crevasse on one shot and trying to keep your ball out of the ocean on the very next shot! Golf aside, Cabo is my agency's #1 sun destination this year - replacing Riviera Maya for that distinction. It is a great spot for guaranteed hot sun and scenery, whale watching and deep sea fishing.
The current "non-winter" here in Minnesota has impacted our winter golf bookings - but not as much as I would have expected. The first Arctic Blast is predicted later this week... we know our phones will ring off the hook and our in-boxes will be very active. (Trying to understand why people don't know it's coming!!!!!) Grab your sticks and go!!!!
Anyway, Happy New Year! I hope it's a helluva lot better than last year for you!
Cheers,
Dick
