We are camped at the holiday inn, Memphis. Also here: a manly bunch — attending a greens keeper conference where I’m sure they will hash out ideal sprayer calibrations, sprinkler cycles, cutting heights and other secrets of the trade. Perfect location. Next door to the hotel, a .::Platinum Plus::. (with its magenta neon signage they fondly nicknamed the Purple _____! and it’s bikini nite). Bummer! I will miss the show. We move on under cover of bright sunshine.
