Trip went off with out a hitch save Texas' showing against notre dame.

Arrived Thursday afternoon.

- Drove to The Glen Club - tough course. Thick rough and deadly fescue on many holes. Game wasn't as sharp. Great round and good facilities. Fastest greens I've ever played and I adjusted well. I don't think I had the proper wedges for the rough. I was able to shower after my round which was great. $165; seems to be semiprivate as I played with two members.

- drove to downtown Chicago. Dinner with work friends and we Howled at the Moon at Howl at the Moon. Great time. Lots of Blue Moons.

Friday:

- woke up early and still a little woozy from the night before. Drove to Cog Hill. I was the first one off as a single. Dubsdread was much more playable than The Glen Club. Rough not as thick and no deadly fescue. Being the first one off allowed for a 2.5 hr round. I played well and I really liked the course. I'd love for that to be my home course. $165 though.

- drove back to hotel to shower and headed to Wrigley Field. Game was pretty cool because half of the stadium was wearing burnt orange. The color of my alma mater. Cubs blew out the diamondbacks.

Saturday

- morning headed to south bend for Texas v Notre Dame. Tailgating was great. LOTS of Texas fans. Game was.......

Sunday

- brunch with friends and flight home.

Great trip. I highly recommend both courses next time you're in Chicago. Downtown Chicago is sweet as well.
