I'm a 68 year old inveterate golfer since retiring I have played in excess of 200 Golf courses throughout North America. I have enjoyed writing all my life and before Blogs I wrote about my experiences at the Master the year Phil Mickelson won. Over the course of the next few months I’ll be writing about Torrey Pines California, Greywolf in Canada, Circling Raven Idaho, SandPines Oregon to name a few. I have seven children and many grandchildren and one more due August. I enjoy gourmet cooking, fine wines. Additionally I collect wine and have a varied wine cellar. Although I’m an “old man” I still enjoy ice skating, inline skating, hiking skiing and scuba diving. I’m a very lucky man who has stopped to smell the roses and travel in Europe and our own continent.
