Alright, I guess I'll kick this off.
So, I have a confession to make. This was the first time that I sat down and poured myself into the live thread from 2019.
I suppose it's for a few reasons. For one, I kind of equate it to listening to a recording of yourself singing karaoke. You don't sound nearly as good as you thought you did, lol. But, I think mainly there was a piece of me that was struggling with the fact that it came and went already. Going through the thread and reliving it was going to provide closure where I really didn't want it to be. A major chapter in my life had happened. There are a few things I wished I would have done differently and I knew going through the thread would bring some of those doubts back to the surface.
But, in any event, I had a picture in mind that I wanted to share. So, the only way to get to it was to dig for it. I'm glad I did. Reading through the thread 4 months after living the experience brought forth a flood of emotions. I sat here smiling just going through all if the pictures and posts. Makes it feel like it just happened last week. I laughed and I would be lying if I said the room didn't get a little dusty.
Anyways, this is my favorite picture from the 2019 Grandaddy and I'll tell you why. This just represents so much of what I feel this event is about. I spent months getting to know these guys. It amazes me that you can throw 13 strangers together from all walks of life and over the internet and one unforgettable event, they end up being good friends. This is the bus ride from HQ to the hotel. We were all excited to finally be together. Thinking we had some idea of what the rest of the week would be like when we really didn't realize how much our minds would be blown.
Anyways, here's the picture. I feel like it sums up a lot of the event for me. And, I miss my teammates, lol. Damn it, room is getting dusty again.
Alright, now you guys blow my mind. Grandaddy hopefuls and veterans alike. I want to see some beautiful course shots, some happy times between teammates, or even just food porn.
Would be a shame if I won my own contest
