The lively dinner reception, attended by celebrities, players and their guests, includes a silent auction and a thrilling live auction offering guests the chance to bid on exclusive access opportunities, fabulous getaways as well as many luxury items.

I really like that he's still able to enjoy life. Golf seems like a good getaway. It's fun and you get to meet lots of interesting and famous people at the charity golf outings. I stop in everyday and enjoy your blog,keep up the good work.
Taylor, go find some gel. Otherwise, gahhhhhhh!!!! What a georgeous man!
With all the hair do-ing and un-doing for Grease, I'm sure Taylor is happy to just wash 'n go. No gel suits a relaxed day on the links.
How nice that Taylor can do one of his favorite things on his day off and still promote himself and this great cause.
