Getting a little fresh air...

Yesterday I wandered out to the La Quinta Resort to watch a little golf. A friend from high school, Colby Beckstrom, plays golf for TCU and was in a tournament there. I like to get out and see him when he comes to the area, so I drove out for the first 36 holes of the tourney. Colby shot rounds of -1 and -4 while I was there, making some pretty crazy shots. His short game was on fire. That put him at -5, in second place and 5 shots behind the leader. And yet to hear him talk afterward, he didn't play well at all. Well, he must have in the final round, because tonight I look online and what did he do? He won it, dropping a -5 in the third round. I borrowed a digital camera and took some pictures yesterday. I'll be putting those up as soon as I can transfer them to my computer.

Update (2003-11-10): I have the pictures online at /images/colby/. No thumbnails, but they're cool pictures, so they're worth checking out.
