Thank You, Mark Johnson!

My sister, Yvonne, is married to Don Johnson (the ORIGINAL) and Don has a brother, Mark, who plays golf. Currently he plays on the senior tour with notables like Tom Kite, Tom Watson, Ben Crenshaw etc. Let me pause for a moment to explain something. My dad played a lot of golf. He used to say, "I shoot in the low 70's. If it gets any colder, I QUIT!" I can only remember watching him play once and that was only because he LET ME pull the new bag carrier, puller, thingy with wheels. I never watched golf, never cared about golf...until August 2008.
While in Washington we found out that Mark was playing in the Boeing Classic, a huge tournament (part of the senior tour) in Snoqualmie, east of Seattle. So Mike and I decided it would be fun to go see him play (getting free VIP passes didn't hurt). End result; we loved it! So much in fact that we went to the Willow Brook tournament a few weeks later in Sandy, Utah. We took Jamie 'cause he DOES play golf. Again, a very enjoyable day and now...we are way into that small tournament called The Ryder Cup. Next, when we truly retire and finish up all that we want to do, we will become tournament followers. I hope Mark will remember to let us know when he plays in Europe (and gives us free VIP passes)!
Go team USA!
