USA Flag (Jamestown Golf Course)

Love the New Flag at Jamestown Golf Course

Category:Golf Tags : 

My favorite golf course, Jamestown Golf Course, just added an awesome American Flag that rises high above the skyline and looks fantastic from a number of different locations on the course.  Not only does it help you with current wind conditions, it just looks great..!   Awesome idea.

Android Auto – Initial Thoughts

Category:Google (Alphabet),Technology

I’m trying to like the new Android Auto on my new car, but it’s hard.  It feels like similar Google products (Notes, Sites, etc) they release that I call Beta feeling, and this is one of those.  When it works, it’s really good, I miss my WAZE app – please integrate it into Android Auto (PLEASE..!)

WAZE, The

WAZE, The “BEST” Mobile driving app by Far…!!!!

Goodbye Rigs (Rigdon Reese)

Category:Uncategorized
Rigdon Leeds Reese
April 25 at 7:47am ·

What a beautiful day, yesterday at the Ocean Cliff, to remember Rigs life, with family and friends. Over looking beautiful Narragansett Bay, on a bright and sunny afternoon, friends shared some great stories from the past. My remembrance didn’t rise to the occasion, but I thought I’d share it here. I knew only a sliver of Rigs amazing life, simply golfing with him every Wednesday afternoon for about 10 years. Those simple afternoons on Jamestown Golf Course were some of my favorite memories. We shared stories of music, politics, religion, relationship, and of course golf. After a decade of playing golf, Rigs started to go his own way, although I always was hoping he’d show up out of nowhere to surprise us…

I miss him and he remains one f the most interesting people I have EVER met, and look forward to that next golf round we can share together.

 I’m bummed to learn an old golfing buddy passed away, Rigdon Leeds Reese was a One of a Kind spirit. I’ve never met anyone like him, his stories, his worldly knowledge was just so entertaining. There are some stars that shine brighter than others, some planets affect your orbit more than others. Rigs you will be sorely missed… I just wanted to play ONE more round of golf with you. Life is truly short my friend…

Prince Died

Category:Music

Yet another musical genius dies too early.  I will say Prince was one of a kind, I didn’t always like his music, but it was his for sure. Maybe the weirdest artists in my life time. Live concert was always his best, first read about him in 1981 in the back of a music magazine #purplerain

Prince performing “Live” was always deemed his best music, this clip from the Superbowl needs to be watched again…      Pouring rain, live instruments, 100M people watching…    Nails It..!

Jordan Spieth’s Collapse at the Masters

Category:Golf,Sports

Call me shocked to watch the very steady Jordan Spieth have a total breakdown at the Masters.  Hope he recovers but that was a real tough 30 minutes of golf to watch.
