Disc Golf: October 2007 Archives

I haven't been to the Rivery in a while. And it looks like they have done some construction in my absence. They paved the parking lot, they built a restroom near the playground (and hole 1), they installed some emergency call boxes, and they put some street lights in. Some of which are directly in our line of throw on hole 6!

In fact, hole 6 is completely overgrown! And I gave up on it when my sidewinder went into the trees. Which pissed off John as he managed to par it. Hehe... but thems the breaks....

Some one wrote some graffiti on the garbage can next to hole 2. It says "I only play the games that I win at".

Still just the two of us (John and I) and still playing at Wilco. I had three good throws on holes 1, 11 and 15.

Today, the "group" met at Old Settler's. And, by group, I mean John. It looks like a "bridge" was built over the tiny creek. I guess some construction equipment needed access and the tiny, wooden bridge was not cutting it.

Apparently there is a famous snake that lives at hole four called Bogey. I don't think I have ever seen a snake at Old Settler's before.

It seems Old Settler's park is rather crowded today. We did not throw at hole sixes' tee box for fear of whacking a car. Given the number of people walking dogs out here, John guess that Barktober fest was going on here. We asked a couple with two large dogs (Great Danes?) and they confirmed his guess.

I often see wild mushrooms growing in different spots. But there are many poisonous varieties. Does large equate to edible? Who am I kidding? I don't eat mushrooms at all. Even store bought ones.

Some one lost a retriever it seems. But it looks pretty short to me. Not much use in my experience

Mmmm, beer! John is slowly completing his transformation. He brought some beer to disc golf today. Now all he needs is to carry some Mary Jane...

John and I were playing great today. We kept neck-in-neck in the score. And we had a number of great throws. Which I attribute to the beer...

We had six people play at Cat Hollow today. Including a relative of Nick and Stephanie who I teamed with. I had great first shots on some of the toughest holes for me, holes 2 and 7. So I was happy. But, even though I asked if people wanted to have lunch with me at the Tilted Kilt at the start (because I had errands in that area). When the group finished, everyone ditched me. Sigh.

John and I played at Wilco today. Its still pretty hot out there. Still feels like summer even though it is most definitely fall. But I can't complain. At least I had one good throw in me.
