it CAN happen

you know, that shining yellow thing, what do you call it....oh yes...THE SUN!!!

FINALLY came out, now I know how Noah felt. All day was asking the workers "dry yet?"

Tiger seems out of it after one round, David Duval is actually doing surprisingly well. Who'd a thunk it? Love him-openly admitted he plays on the PGA tour to underwrite his snowboarding habit. Love him!!!

As for Tiger, he's 4 over, which here, is actually good. Last time he won here he was the only player to par.

AMAZING crowds-despite the mud and shit weather, when I left 'round 3:30, busses were STILL piling in!!! Wow. Our toughest jobs today were keeping the cart from overturning, sliding down mudpaths (kept calling it "extreme golf," or "welcome to Woodstock '09.") People would NOT get out of the way, walking like fucking zombies. But the good part, among many, was they take VERY good care of us: not the fancy food of last time;today: fruit, bagels, fresh coffee, water, and massages-cool! And we got lunch vouchers for a burger or a whatever-which the majority of us never use-bagels and fruit suffice.

Today's brush with grapeness: David Duval, Phil Mickelson, Fred Funk. Delivering water to the T boxes (and this was an unending task with the warm temps) got you totally close to the players. Uber cool. Had Slocum wave us through (we cut across the fairway on 13 to get to the T box), how often do you get a pro helping???

Manana my last shift, then Sunday the Father's Day 5m. Be nice to get back to running, but with the lifting, got my workouts in. And what's predicted through Monday??? Don't EVEN say it.
