Some people are Christmas people. Some people are Thanksgiving people. And some people, well they like the day before the holidays. There’s anticipation of the following days events. It’s the time to prepare to ensure things go well. And it’s normally the calm before the storm, when you can take a deep breath, knowing things are about to get nuts. I’m that guy.
In the year’s I’ve been able to attend Chit Show, Mark Cabrera has generously offered to host us at his club, White Eagle CC, Wednesday afternoon, the day before all the events go down. The Wednesday of Chit Show week I have always played 36, and arranged a few morning tee times at a club close to “The Bird” to give some of the folks traveling in some extra golf. This year due to work, I wasn’t able to able to make either happen as a player. Leading up, I was due to be in meetings all day, but a last second change, left my afternoon free, and a desire to play hooky.
Mark was on board with me coming to hang out, and I thought I’d bring out the camera and do some shooting.
I had a blast jetting around the course and getting to hang with each of the groups. Chatting, drinking and watching the merriment was a joy. So many bonds have been formed over the years, and over the millions of FB messenger texts. What these events have become is quite amazing, and always an abundance of fun.
Thanks to Mark for hosting this group of degenerates, and I look forward to getting to play it again next year!
