Lake Hamilton School District/Burns Park Championship Course

 This round might have produced the most acute negative turnaround in my experience as a golfer. Dan, Ed, John and I played Burns Park Championship Course this morning. Dan scored 78, Ed 90, and John 100. I scored 91 with nines of 39 and 52. I had my fifth lifetime eagle on the Par-5 fourth hole, with a five-wood, six-iron, and a chip from the fringe. On the back nine, I did not par and had a 10 on the Par-4 15th. As a foursome, we were a combined 14-over on that hole with it's irrational, nearly impossible pin placement. I used 28 putts.

Late yesterday morning, I walked for a few seconds over forty minutes around the bulk of the Lake Hamilton School District in Pearcy, about ten miles southwest of Hot Springs. I was there to look at a 2000 Crown Victoria, for sale on govdeals.com. Here it is: https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=734&acctid=4885

I hope a bid of $1,700 or less will win it tomorrow (Thursday) morning. It will likely run well for the rest of my life and is no more than perhaps $1,000 from cosmetic perfection.
