Golfing and bug bites
Last night was my womens golf league. It was the first time this season that we were playing stroke play. There was a limit of triple bogey on each hole to ensure speedy play. I sadly to say may have hit that many many times. But not every single time. On the 7th hole, which has this crazy hill I managed to hit it (practically kill the ball) and it bounced off the hill and completely across the fairway into the fringe on the other side. If it had rolled two more inches it would have rolled down another hill. Then I managed to kill it once more and I crossed the fairway and the golf path this time so that I was on the other side of the hole. Then a nice little, not really that little chip with my nine iron and I was on the green. I was about 10 feet from the hole and I putted it in for a par. My second par ever. I'm so happy. I realize that only one par with the rest of my score may not have been the best but who cares. I'm happy to just see that I'm improving. Granted I do think it's funny that I wasn't on the actual hole until I made it to the green. I really should take some lessons.
Last night the bugs were out in full force. I noticed only because our cart did not have a windshield and frequently I was getting hit in the face by the bugs as I was driving around the course. Then as I was eating after the fact my left eyelid was itching. I felt up there and sure enough I had a bite on my eyelid. That is a first for me. It's gone down quite a bit today so I don't have a funny looking swollen eye, but it would give me some funny stories.
