For the first time in two weeks, we had a glorious Saturday. After so much rain, I thought I would never see the sun! I played golf this Saturday at Jericho National, Global Traveler‘s home course in Bucks County.  Joining me in the foursome was Laurence Henry (GT legal consultant), Gerald Patrick (part of our regular golf entourage) and John Ecklund (contributor to GTee, our monthly golf roundup in Global Traveler).  I had not played golf with John since his review of the River Club in the May 2009 GTee. Due to all the heavy rains during the week, the course played cart paths only for the carts, so we were zigzagging every fairway with several clubs in hand to determine our shots.  The rain helped the fescue grass — a Jericho trademark — grow thick and lush.  Only four weeks ago landing your ball in this fescue was not much of a penalty, as you could easily make a clean shot.  Now you would be lucky to find your ball or would be forced to chip it back into play. All in all, it was a magnificent day for GT players and associates at Jericho! -Fran Gallagher, publisher and CEO
