Easter Monday - this was a view of the patio at the house that we stayed at. Had a great time here - would definitely like to put it on the list of places to visit again.POTD: 08 April 2007

The view from our house (well, we wish - its the house we rented for the Easter weekend) at White River Country Estate.POTD: 06 April 2007
First day and first round of our annual golf tour. This pic was taken on the Par 5 8th hole. As you can see, it was a late afternoon round. The mountains of the lowveld (sounds a bit oxymoronic that) in the background, and the Kruger park to the right of this picture. The course - Kruger Park Lodge, at the Numbi Gate.POTD: 05 April 2007
If you look carefully, and use your imagination a bit, you'll see a faint sunset in the waters of our fountain upstairs...POTD: 04 April 2007
Looking through the eye-piece of my telescope. Can't really see much, but I thought it would be cool to see what the picture looked like.POTD: 03 April 2007
Good looking bunch of roses that I bought K the other day. We had a braai at our place - Tzvet, Graham, Melanie and Andre. Bought these to brighten up the lounge a bit.

POTD Series
Right - I know that I've been slack with the POTD over the past week or so. It's not that I don't have them - I'm definitely taking the pics, but am struggling to find the time to get them onto my PC, resize them, rename them, upload them and link to them. Its a process you see - a process that is becoming quite a mission of a process now that I'm back at work.
Yes yes, I did take the pledge to see Project365 through to the end, and its been great to look back at the Photo of the Day since 1st November last year. Some great memories too. I will endeavour to keep it up, but may not be able to guarantee a new pic each day. What seems to work for me at the moment, is a bulk posting of all the POTD's for the week. What are your thoughts? Is it about quantity of content, or quality posts on a less regular basis. Let me know.

Heading in the right direction...
Ok, so all the golfing time that I have put in over the past few months is finally starting to pay off. Checked my handicap today, and I've dropped from a 17, to a 14. Still not single figures yet, which is where I wanted to be in the first quarter of this year, but its heading in the right direction. The trick is to now try and keep up the regular rounds, even though I'm working again, so that the handicap doesn't suddenly start heading in the opposite direction.

Weekend in the Lowveld
Returned home yesterday from a great weekend in the Lowveld. Each and every year for the past 6 years, K and I go away with a group of mates on a "Golf Tour". The idea is to get away for the Easter weekend, spoil ourselves with a new destination, and allow the guys to splash out on some of the top courese in South Africa. The tour has taken us to Swaziland (Royal Swazi course), Sun City (Gary Player course), Zinkwazi (Prince's Grant course), Drakensberg (Champagne Sports Resort Golf Course), Cape Town (Erinvale and Clovelly courses) and this year, to White River (White River country club). We rented a house in the White River Country Estate, and had a round of nine holes (American scramble with all the wives and g/f's playing) at Kruger Park Lodge course, and then the main round on Saturday morning. The rest of the time was spent relaxing.

POTD: 01 April 2007
The 18th fairway at Germiston Golf Club. First time I have played at Germiston - the course is in good condition, which is surprising considering the lack of rain. I wondered whether they watered from the lake, but apparently not. I guess boreholes on this course are pretty full though, considering all the water close by.POTD: 31 March 2007
The parking lot at Eastgate shopping center on month-end Saturday. Pretty full...
POTD: 29 March 2007
The Frog - another wooden piece on our coffee table upstairs. Stroke his back with the stick and he croaks.POTD: 28 March 2007
We've had a bit more rain this week. This was another early morning drizzle on the way to work.
