Alligator on my mind...part 2

Not too much to add to the Colonel's colorful and amusing tale of danger and intrigue at Jekyll Island, except this lurking gator captured on "film"...the same one that almost did in both coaches on one day!
Seriously, though, for golf stuff...the team is doing well despite our only preparation for this tourney being hitting balls indoors. Everyone is working hard and we are making great strides building towards bigger and better things for our future...not always an easy thing to swallow when you want it now, but according to both coaches, many great things are happening which will show up in future events. In addition to dealing with gators all over the place, we've had incredibly strong and tough winds to negotiate each day. For those of you who don't play golf, playing in tricky swirling and gusty winds is physically tiring, but more so, mentally exhausting...trying to guess what effect those winds may have on the ball flight and carry is a complete guessing game. It's been crazy with those winds here most of the week and I can only speak for myself (and I'm not playing) but I'm ready for them to stop!

One day of competition to go...let's see what tomorrow brings and if you're so inclined, send your well wishes our way with the winds!
