Masters request

My cousin, Suzy, went to Mercer in the 70s, while I was in Athens. She sent me this email request from her college roommate, Regina Work:

Hi Sandy - my college roommate generated this email. Her mother is a Masters regular as you and see by the newspaper articles. Do you or David know members of Augusta National Golf Club that could get her in for a tour??

okay so maybe I'm just a little proud of her! This is your link to the article in Today's Boston Globe, if you've no way to pick up the paper you can read it here, although it won't have her beautiful picture, Also, below it is her article in the Sunday edition of the Cape Cod Times(two nice pics in that one), and look for her in a upcoming story in Golf Week...can you imagine at 86 after sitting in your bedroom all winter long and watching every sports show known to mankind on TV how exciting this must be? My heart is very full today. I don't suppose any of you know a member of Augusta National, my whole goal was to get her into that clubhouse for a tour after all these years (yes, I know, she and everyone else)...call me 508-776-9848!

The most beautiful rainbow

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that
wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You
will have your heart broken probably more than once and
it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so
remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight
with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things
an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast,
and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too
many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never
been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset
is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be
afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

Live simply. Love generously.
Care deeply. Speak kindly.
Leave the rest to God.

magda's on thursday

Again, I don't have notes, though I'll try to give you an idea of last night at Magda's WBA host. If you were there too, please add to my commentary!

The interesting thing about WBA is that it's not boring. Or stuffy. And the group size changes. People have wondered if we are getting too big, that sometimes there are too many people. Not last night. It was a perfectly manageable group: Laurie Adams, Karin Gillespie, Pat Tante, Susan Bly, Donna Whaley, Linda Henderson, Mary Schroer, Rebekah Wilson, Jenny Roddy. Pat Moss came for her second time, and BJ Lester her first.

Pat's working with Karen Hill on a sacred journey to Santa Fe, New Mexico, in May. Karen couldn't come to Magda's because she's on a cruise now - poor baby!

Laurie's prepping for an art show in Charleston (well, Summerville) and she's also got a big ballet event tonight. Pat's a therapist in marriage and family and individual counseling. BJ's a former teacher, which doesn't begin to describe how lovely she is.

By around seven, after a few people had come and gone, the rest of us were in Magda's sunroom and the talk turned to Auction Rate Securities, Bear Sterns, feminism, racism, sex and power, and politics - presidential, congressional, and personal. We are friends, and we are comfortable in talking to each other about these things - even though sometimes, the friendships are brand new.

Now don't you wish you were there?

Next month will be at Karen Hill's on April 24. Sadly, I'll be out of town - jot down your impressions and I'll circulate them when I return.
