Hello again.
Today we spent the day at the Deutsche Bank Fedex cup site in Norton Massachusetts.

Today was a practice round that was also a Pro Am tournament.  There were 4 amateurs that were teamed up with a Pro, with 52 teams competing today.  Many of the Pros forego their regular caddy and play with course caddies.  The caddies signed up for a lottery to determine who might caddy for a Pro.
The day was very sunny and hot, but thanks to Birdies for the Brave, a temporary stand was set up to provide the much needed relief.

The next 2 pictures were of the 17th tee and fairway from the stand.

After a lot of walking around the course, we decided on a shaded location to sit and watch the players come through.

Today was a great day for getting in a lot of walking...and who knows, Grammie might even be found playing a round on the golf course.

Oh, by the way, if Gloria Garmin tells you that you might save 10 minutes driving somewhere...don't do it.  Stick to your original plans.  The drive back through Bean town was actually uneventful, although a little longer than planned.  Tomorrow, Day 1 of the Tournament.
