Gabriel's Creek

Gabriel's Creek Golf Course couldn't be found when ChrisCollins looked for a course where he could play a special round. Still, therewas no reason he should expect anything other than a normal and relaxing day ofgolf when he stumbled into this easy-to-forget place. He meets the coursemascot, a Border collie named Ralphie, a dog they say just showed up one dayout of nowhere. Then, a special breakfast ends with the Pro's caution, "Thisplace is magical...You'll see what I mean."

Collins has chosen to spend one of the last days of his lifedoing something he loves: walking 18 holes of golf. With Ralphie as guide and companion,Gabriel's Creek itself brings out his reflections on life in a tale aboutfamily, friends, and commitment, about dogs and destinations.

As his round winds along, the course brings a variety ofcharacters from his past to meet him. These players show much about who Collinsis and how he treasured his life's relationships. Along with them, he is poppedinto and out of golf holes across two continents. Some are places he has playedbefore, while some he had simply dreamed of before.

Is it time travel, or is it just the enchantment ofGabriel's Creek?
