The week is off to a nice start but with rain heading our way maybe tomorrow. Nice weekend at the beach but with a different look to the beach surface in many areas. The beach was harrowed..... all for the turtles. The sand had become too hard and packed, making it difficult for nesting so the changes to the surface were made last week. Hopefully there'll be lots of healthy babies born this season. Thanks to my Tybee Y workout buddy, Frank, for the heads up on the situation.
One other Tybee note..walking back from the beach yesterday we saw a dog locked in a car with hardly any ventilation. The Tybee police arrived on the scene and shortly thereafter came the dog owners. They received a lecture on proper animal care along with a citation.
The Braves back in business...all it took was a little dose of Houston and some hitting from rookie Jason Heyward. And how about our first place Savannah Sand Gnats with the best record in the Sally league.
Happy to have picked the Derby winner this year. Super Saver and a cold exacta with Ice Box. Calvin Borel is Mr. Derby.
Great story with Savannah connections the day before at Churchill Downs on Oaks Day. One of the preliminary races was won by a 2 year old colt named Lou Brissie. The WW11 hero who was a Savannah pitching icon. A 23-5 record on a shattered leg. The 88 year old Brissie was at the track to see his namesake get the win.
The big story at the Quail Hollow golf tournament was Tiger missing the cut--at least that was the story until yesterday. 20 year old Irish golfer Rory McIlory shot a closing round 62 to win his first PGA tournament. He became the youngest winner on tour since..well...Tiger Woods..
Have a great week,
