This year I have plans to go to the biggest and best golf tournament in the the world, held every year in Augusta, Georgia. I have a friend who lives in nearby Aiken, SC, so the deal is that I buy the tickets for both of us and I get to stay at his house for a week during the tournament.
Last year I did not get to attend any baseball games all year, so this year I have to make up for that.

But this year, we are back to our yearly trek to Chicago in the heat of summer to cheer for the Cardinals.
