Editor’s note: I’m at Pebble Beach for the Lexus Champions for Charity as a guest of Lexus. This is another installment in an ongoing series. Read Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4.
IT WAS DARK AND FOGGY LIKE, WELL, Pebble Beach when we arrived late this afternoon at The Inn at Spanish Bay for the 2012 Lexus Champions for Charity. All our bags and golf clubs arrived as well (always a good thing) and are safely stowed. We’re here. And we’re excited!
The Lexus folks are outstanding and the accommodations and hospitality are truly remarkable. The welcome gifts included three FootJoy golf shirts, a “whale” button-up shirt and a Marmot Gravity Jacket. (Had I known of this bounty, I could have packed a tad lighter.)
“I’m in heaven,” my wife just said. This is good to hear, you know?
We’re situated on the second floor in an expansive ocean-view room, complete with fireplace, balcony and more. As I said, it’s pitch black, but with the balcony door open I hear and smell the ocean—and that’s alright with me.
Tonight is a welcome reception at The Beach Club. Let the fun begin.
