We did it!! 34 Years, 3,000 shows ... and finally ... Alaska!!

Well, we finally made it to Alaska for a show!!! After 34 years and almost 3,000 performances and 49 states the circle is complete!

We performed for The First Tee of Alaska and had a GREAT time!! Thanks to Billy Bomar of The First Tee for all the nice things he did for us. What a beautiful place as you can see by some of the pictures. As a big fan of "Deadliest Catch," we had King Crab every meal, visited a game preserve where we saw moose, elk, and a lot of animals native to Alaska.

We also went for a seaplane ride over Anchorage, which was awesome.

Oh by the way did I mention we had a great show, a large crowd and a beautiful day at The Anchorage GC. Mr. Bucky was on his game and enjoyed the cool weather. My shots were right on and Tom did his usual great work. Everyone who has the chance should visit this wonderful place.

On the way to Alaska we had a show in LA for The First Tee and this was another great Jersey Mikes' Show. About 300 folks came out including basketball Hall of Famer Jerry West.

We then flew to Salt Lake City for a PGA of America Play Golf America Day that was devoted to growing the game for people with disabilities. Sioux Falls SD was our next stop and thanks to Coralee Jorgensen the professional at Westward Ho CC. We had a very successful visit and the hospitality was terrific. On to Nashville for another Jersey Mike's show. Jersey Mike's is a long time sponsor and a company that is devoted to helping the communities where they do business. We have teamed up with The First Tee chapters in 12 cities to deliver our positive message and the BEST sub these youngsters will have. It has been a very rewarding program and as always thanks to Peter Cancro, founder of Jersey Mike's.

The First Tee in Pineville KY, The First Tee in Monmouth County, NJ is where our journey took us next. On to The Greenbrier Classic at one of my favorite places. Big turnout and it is always a big thrill to appear with the best players in the world. We had a great place to park our Newmar motorhome right near the course. The motorhome is totally accessible which makes life so much easier for me. The lift that helps me enter the motorhome is a life saver. Thanks to Dick Parks and Mathew Miller for all there support of our program as the motorhome is our home for 6 months a year and is the only way we could ever hope to make all our commitments.

April, May, June and July have now flown by and we have four more weeks until our 10 day break the first part of September. We always build this break into our schedule and it gives us a little time off before we finish the majority of tour in the fall. Off we go to our next stops, see you on down the road.
