Sending home advice for Stan

Our daughter took the ferry from England to Ireland this week and she's now bumming the Emerald Isle, enjoying the sights and the people. Jennifer has emailed pictures of a few gorgeous landscapes and beautiful home settings.  Here she is with golf instructor Robert Ryder. She caught a ride with him into the countryside Saturday. He's a distant relative to Samuel Ryder, founder of the famed Ryder Cup, golf's most prestigious team competition.

Always looking out for her stepdad, Jennifer sends along this tidbit:
"I asked him what he would say the most important thing in playing golf was and he said 'Your grip.' So there's your tip for the day."
Thanks, Jen! We'll get to work on that tomorrow when Stan heads to Montgomery for a fall foursome at that small-town country club. Meanwhile, you be safe amongst those Irish, Jennifer Kathleen.
And never forget your Sullivan roots. Might even get you a free pint.
