2-Week Hiatus


Dear Brothers:

Greetings!  The Easter Season roars along!  Since our last gathering, we have a new Masters Champion:  Jordan Spieth.  Most already know that he is a Texas Longhorn.  What you may not know (but will in a moment) is that he attends Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church in Dallas -- a sister congregation of ours.  So does David Feherty of the "Feherty" program on The Golf Channel.

THE NICODEMUS LEAGUE will take a two week break. I have a meeting tomorrow and next week I will be in Nebraska visiting my dad.  Thanks for your understanding!  Our next gathering will be Wednesday, April 29th, at the usual time.  Stay tuned to our blog and your email inbox for updates!

P.S.  If anyone might be interested in playing golf on Thursday, April 23rd, at Champions Circle (by TX Motor Speedway), let me know.  It's a scramble event by local firefighters to raise $$ for muscular dystrophy. 

With Gratitude...I remain, Your Scribe,
PRDunklau
