Message: [QUOTE="boontonbomber, post: 5313344, member: 384"] And getting smaller, Deacon. I wonder if we've crossed paths. I worked a summer at Stoneybrook, when it was owned by Mac MacTaggert. I was a high school math teacher(same as your good friend, BF) , at Wamogo in Litchfield. BF and I even rode together to Central CT when first working on our masters degrees. Then he left teaching, bought Stoneybrook. I actually was a member there for a year. He was a go-getter, and did a great job creating Fairview Farms, which I've never played. I was able to play at Pine Valley in the early 90's. A good friend of one of my sons was getting married, outside of Philadelphia. I was invited to the wedding. The family of the girl he married were members at Pine Valley , and the family invited attendees to play the morning of the wedding. The girl's father, Jim Finnegan, wrote for Golf Magazine and the Philadelphia Inquirer. Rick's father, who passed away recently, was a very good golfer, as well as a well known landscape artist. And he coached the baseball team at Litchfield; one of my sons played for him. I ran into him after playing Pine Valley, and told him I was surprised, that I didn't think the course was that difficult. He thought I'd lost my mind; but then I laughed. [/QUOTE]
