It has reached that point. I’ve turned into a golf course stalker.

This afternoon, I needed to go to a meeting in St. Paul and I needed to get lunch. So what did I do? Obviously I drove past my golf course to see where things were.

What did I find? There was much less snow than there was even a handful of days ago. Snow was limited largely to areas in which receive very little sunlight. The greens are still covered. And some of the hazards still appear to be ice-covered.

A couple of tees that I saw in my drive through the parking lot look pretty good. And reports are promising.

We will certainly have golf in the Twin Cities this weekend. I’m hopeful that my course will open prior to next weekend. The upcoming forecast certainly looks positive.
