Iceout in Billerica
This ditch at Vietnam Veterans Disc Golf course is usually dry, but in February, it was full of water and ice.

Ten pounds of tools in a five-pound toolbox
I had trouble finding the tin snips because they were buried under layers of screwdrivers, wire, Duco cement, and miscellaneous other tools. So I took this opportunity (after more than 50 years!) to empty out this toolbox, take stock, and pare down a bit.

Disc golf in winter
Update: If you're interested in more musings about disc golf, check out my newsletter Notes from Bogeyland.
I am looking forward to playing disc golf in the spring. But I am also glad that it's possible to play disc golf all year round, including winter. I played last week at The Hill in Devens, Massachusetts.

Disc golf is a great sport for pandemic times: outdoors, socially distanced, and not too many crowds. If you like hiking, throwing frisbees, and it’s the middle of a pandemic, disc golf is the perfect sport for you!
