Day 41: Lake time

The view from No. 18 green is gorgeous!
Headed to the course nice and early, got HQ set up and then rode the course to get some course
photography. This course is so beautiful! Around every turn you can see for miles over the rest of Horseshoe Bay and the neighboring city of Marble Falls. No. 18 has a panoramic view to die for; the video does not do it justice! We were chugging along in HQ when we started getting really hot. We had just finished eating lunch, so we thought maybe the food was making us warm. Over the next two hours we slowing watched the thermostat rise to 85°F.The air conditioning was stuck and wouldn't kick on. When it's 102°F outside, air conditioning is a necessity.

Now that is a lake house!
We left around 4 and headed back to our private housing, which is a lake house this week! Bridget, Tori, Michael, Tschida and I are in the lake house. When we got home, all of the doors were locked... we didn't lock the doors when we left. It was so strange. We finally got a hold of Mr. Goodman, who owns the home, and got the code. We headed over via boat to Mr. Goodman's other lake house for dinner. It was the biggest and nicest lake home I have ever seen! It was enormous and came complete with pool and hot tub, four jet skis and two boats (that's not including the boats and jet skis that are at the house we're staying at). Mr. Goodman is currently the Chairman and CEO of Genesis Network Enterprises, but he also co-founded Goodman Networks and was the founder, chairman and CEO of Greater Cell Communications. With credentials like that, I want to see his resume! A bunch of us took out jet skis and rode around the lake. It was so carefree and relaxing! I had forgotten what it felt like to just take a breath and be on the lake with friends. The view from the Goodman's dock was beautiful! God is so good!

Pink at night, sailors delight!

  1. Your pictures are better than post cards. Looks like a nice place to decide the next few tournaments are a no show for you guys and you stay where you are. That sunset was a nice end of the day. Dad
