Where Eagles Dare

My hope was to get a hole-in-one today to have an example to celebrate when I teach on holidays and celebrations tomorrow night.

I didn't quite get it.

But I got as close as I possibly could.  I got an Eagle on a par 4, hitting my drive down the middle of the fairway, and then holing out my second shot from just under 100 yards away.

Last year was my first eagle, traditional on a par 5.  This year, my second, on a par 4, slightly harder and requiring more luck.

I think that means next year will be eagle number 3 and it will come on a par 3, in the form of a hole-in-one, at least, that is what I'm going to tell myself.
