Hi Lisa,

Iteresting profile...My wife, Barbara, is a star gazer...We are headed for the Arizona Desert "where the stars at night are big & bright." Thanks, Texas for the loan of that ditty. I'll play golf in AZ. I've followed two greats from South Africa on the tour...Gary player & Ernie Els. Also, I've written a book, THE FEATHERY. A work of fiction that blends the game in with history, romance and suspence.Check out the synopsis & reviews on Amazon.
Thank you for the friendship, Lisa.

Best,

Bill
