tee of the 14th hole at the Aquatic Park disc golf course in Berkeley, California. a basket sits in the distance amongst a variety of trees mostly on the right but one big tree to the left about 40 feet in front of the tee, and a cluster of three tall trees about 200 feet out in the middle

a pink Hawkeye disc in the basket for the 14th hole at Aquatic Park in Berkeley, California

First ace! Now I can die happy

14th hole at Aquatic Park — short basket position (252 ft.)

Casual solo round (no pedestrians 😔) but oh well

Lightest anhyzer past those 3 middle trees to get just wide of the basket and fade back 👩‍🍳💋

I knew it would be the Hawkeye!

The SF "fun police" have entered the chat. 🌊🛑 Rec & Park is warning the weekly Aquatic Park cold plunge that 300+ people requires a permit, insurance, and lifeguards.

The struggle to keep community events "free and informal" in the city is real. #SF #ColdPlunge #BayArea #AquaticPark

And then there were 2…

I got my first birdie ever on hole 12 at #AquaticPark last night — mediocre drive, but a whopper of a 60-foot putt high on the chains weak side

Only 11 and 15 remain unbirdied!

I found this disc yesterday on 13 at Aquatic Park

(I got par. It flew like a flippy Wraith)

Fly on, Mark

A sea lion snuffled my left foot!!!!

Or a seal

All I know is someone with at least 98-100 degree internal temp sniffed or licked my toe and that got me moving pretty fast lol

“Why aren’t you kicking so hard?”

Ok thanks coach!

And then there were 3…

First birdie ever on hole 8 at #AquaticPark!

Damn, I thought that one might be the last to get

11, 12, and 15 are the only holes left w/o a birdie

(it’s been 2+ years since I got it down to 4, so these last ones are *tough*)

Would you swim on a winter’s day in San Francisco?

Can you spot the swimmers?
