Dreams do come true!

Everyone has dreams. Some are for health and family and others are completely frivolous but not matter what the incentive we can all dream about something and when it does come true it can be the best day of our lives. Chip had the opportunity to have a dream come true. He is a golf purest and one of his dreams has been to play golf at St. Andrews in Scotland. St. Andrews is believed to be the oldest golf course, a place where golf started and it hasn't changed in over 500 years. His older brother Trevor was taking his parents there as a Christmas gift. Trevor doesn't golf and he thought it would be more fun for his dad to have a golf partner so he called Chip two weeks before they left and invited him to come if he could get a plane ticket there. Two weeks later Chip was on a plane to Scotland. He golfed one of the most memorable rounds of his life and he was able to do it with his dad. After he came home I asked what it was like to complete his dream? He said, "Now that I have that out of the way I can't wait to go to New Zealand to golf." I realized that I need to dream bigger!!!

Way cool! I love the picture w/ Chip and the Eagle. I would be way to scared thinking it would eat my eyes out like on Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds".
