Pic of the Day: My Ticket Back to the Links

By Martin Henderson

Today's Photo of the Day is a winner, not because the photo is extraordinary, but because the idea is awesome. It's from Patrick McDonagh, and he says this photo is how he intends to get back on the golf course. 

That's right, McDonagh is getting his kids involved. When the kids are involved, Dad gets involved. Someone has to look out for them on that big old dangerous golf course, right? 

Hence the photo, "My Ticket Back to the Links."

Real clever, Dude. 

"The only way for me to get back in golfing is by having my kids also playing," McDonagh said. 

Pictured are Madelyn, 7, and Patrick, 5. And though we like their swings, we're going to endorse more practice time with Dad.

Have you got a great photo because it's poignant, funny, creative, stirring, action-packed, interesting, artistic or different? 

Feel free to pass your in-focus (preferably) photo of everyday life along to local editor Martin Henderson on the Lake Forest Facebook page, or send an email to martin.henderson@patch.com. You can also text him your photo at 949-354-1734.

Name your photo (so we can put it in the headline), tell us who the photographer is, and share it with your neighbors. If you've got a story about the photo, feel free to share that, too. 

Don't be shy. You've got your camera phone, you've got an itchy trigger finger, snap off a moment in time and share it on Patch. And, if you don't want to go through a third party, upload it directly through a Blog or the Board in the same way that this one is.
