Golfing at Home

Whew!  It has been hot here in Texas but that hasn't kept me off the golf course :)  Actually had a great week of golf on my home course at Fossil Creek.  On Thursday I shot a 73!!  Woohoo!  Had 3 bogeys and 2 birdies.  I had not left the house thinking I was going to play a around just hit some ball, but when I arrived at the course, there was almost no one on the links so out I went!  Whizzed around the course and hit beautiful irons and was soooo relaxed.  Been pretty busy getting ready for my next big trips and fighting some allergies, but today (Sunday), I was ready to play again and pack in some rounds.  Because of the heat, most people had apparently stayed home -- wussies!  I used my Eagle points for a free round and headed out about 12:30 -- there were only 8 of us on the whole course.  So, I played 2 balls for the whole round, kept separate scores and thus played 36 holes in 3 hours.  And....played really, really well again.  I shot a 76 and a 78 and just missed 4-5 putts for birdies that would have put those a little lower.  Hopefully, I will get out again once or twice before heading off on my next memorial scavenger hunt.
