That's golf: one day you're almost holing out for an albatross on #1 and a few days later you visit the patio on the way to the 15th green. Thanks, Dawn, for being a good sport and re-creating the shot for us!! ('cause she knew it was going on the blog)

Dawn's Eagle and a book

Everyone had a good time at the Men's and Women's Opening on Saturday, but Dawn McMaster must have impressed her playing partners with a "natural" eagle on #1 - her own two shots and a putt from a few inches! Team mates were Ralph Warren, Al LeBlanc, and photographer Dean Trimble.

Dale Hodge would like you to be aware of her son's just published novel, available from Dale. The write up on the back is all too timely!
