Knights of Columbus Museum

The Knights of Columbus Museum is located in New Haven, Connecticut just a short walk away from the fraternal organizations headquarters.  It's a place where you easily spend several hours viewing the statuary, paintings, regalia, relics and artifacts.  Many of the items on display are from the Vatican.  The images shown below are just a smidgen of what is on display at this facility.  It's well worth a visit.

Lighthouse Point Park

Lighthouse Point Park

New Haven, Connecticut

After seventy-three years the light from the New Haven Light House at Lighthouse Point is now dark. The tower does remain, greeting ships from around the world.  The city bought the park from an amusement company and today it features a bird sanctuary, a public beach, ball fields and a carousel.  A few photos are shown below followed by an Internet link to tour more of the park.

Here is the Internet link to view a more extensive look art the park.

The Course at Yale

The Course at Yale

The following is quoted from  http://thecourseatyale.org/

"Voted #1 College Golf Course in America
Ranked #45 of the Top 100 Classical Golf Courses in America

In 1924, a 700-acre tract of swamp and woodland was given to Yale by Mrs. Ray Tompkins in memory of her husband. Under the supervision of Charles Blair Macdonald, the renowned golf course architect, champion golfer, and co-founder of the USGA, plans were made for an 18-hole golf course. With a budget of $400,000, Macdonald, in collaboration with Seth Raynor and Charles Banks, designed a masterpiece which opened for play in 1926.

Today, the Yale Golf Course is recognized as one of the finest examples of early American golf course design. Large deeply bunkered greens and narrow rolling fairways are the core of Yale's penalizing character. In 1988, Golf Magazine ranked Yale as 71st among the 100 most difficult courses in the world. Many recognize the layout as the best collegiate course in the nation. Two of the holes- the 432-yard par-4 fourth and the 238-yard par-3 ninth - have been ranked among the 100 most difficult holes. The Yale course has been the site of every significant state championship, two USGA Junior National events, the 1991 NCAA Eastern Regional championships, the 1991 ECAC Men's Championship, and the 1992 ECAC Women's Championship. During the NCAA tourney, only 21 subpar rounds were recorded of the 360 played during the three days. The course has also been the home of the Nike Connecticut Open."

I've been fortunate to have been able to play the course a few times and it is, indeed, a national treasure.

The last time I played the Course at Yale I took over five dozen photos.  You can view them as a film clip on the following link.
