Saturday morning was one of those glorious days we get in autumn here in South Texas. At daybreak, the temperature was in the 50s, and as the morning wore on reached the upper 70s. The light breeze left something of a chill in the air, but I wore shorts and my GoreTex pullover as a concession–for about eight holes. The sky was big.
The best part of the day was playing the four holes on the back nine which meander along the bay. It was hard to focus on golf while looking across the bay to the Corpus Christi skyline, Harbor Bridge, and USS Lexington. The water was smooth. Anglers vied with shorebirds for a catch. Dolphins cruised just offshore. Blue, bright, and crisp is the best description I can come up with.
As much as I enjoy golf, some days it becomes secondary.
