Thanks.
You know how students get restless. We need the calming effect of the watchful eyes of our teachers. And we work harder when they are around.
Was Monterey-PB “weather training” for St. Andrews? I remember it being “brisk” early in the week at Monterey.

Your observation is correct and noted, HB. Just know that the phenomenon is one of season, not apathy.
As for my personal participation, I will be posting this week from the Old Course Hotel and The Open Championship at St. Andrews. Judging from the weather this morning -- cold, wet and windy -- I may be more active than originally planned! Read those posts in The Majors Forum. Meanwhile, I do have some 8,000 posts in the archives that should give active minds plenty to digest.
For now, with due apologies to Pete Seeger and his folk classic, "Where Have All the Flowers Gone", please accept this ditty from the Home of Golf:

Gone to students every one.

That's 'cause they have learned . . .

Very clever lyrics and that is certainly my goal while I play and my goal for those I will teach!
