Mrs. Major continues to improve. She’s getting around, now, with the aid of a cane instead of her walker. She went to play cards at a friend’s house last night, went swimming this morning, and went out to lunch with “the girls” today. I can still outrun her, though.

Mrs. Major Update
She’s doing really well. When I got home from the U.S. Open, I noticed right away…she was able to stand up long enough to give me a big welcome home kiss and hug. Now that’s improvement.
As you can see, the tapes have all fallen off the incisions and they are healing nicely.
Mrs. Major is now walking down the street seven houses in the evening instead of the two she was doing when I left. She’s also walking around the house with a cane sometimes instead of the walker. Also, she leaves the walker behind when she can steady herself on a counter or wall. Read more
Tiger Does It Again
I’m finally recovered from the trip. After watching the playoff and sudden death playoff, we took the redeye (10 pm takeoff from San Diego) to Philly then to Tampa then drove home. I got home around 2pm Tuesday. Too tired to do anything but veg until bed time. Read more
Stayin’ For The Playoff
Hooray! Tiger Woods birdied the 18th hole to tie Rocco Mediate at one under for the U.S. Open. Tomorrow at 9am we’ll be in the stands at hole one for the start of the 18 hole playoff.
Why No Cameras
Bonnie asked , “Why no cameras [at the U.S. Open during the competitive rounds].”
Good question, Bonnie. If you’ve ever watched the British Open, where they allow cameras and cell phones, you’ll often see golfers back off of shots and glare at the crowd. That’s because somebody was “clicking” their photo as the golfer was about to make his shot, interrupting his concentration. They have enough trouble trying to get some fans to be quiet during the shots, much less trying to get the “cool action photo”.
On practice days, they’re not trying to win a tournament, so they allow the clicking. They also allow fans to get autographs between holes. Practice days are very relaxed. Competition days are very intense.
