Learning that we needed to find yet an additional two replacement holes for the disc golf course, when after hours of searching, we’d only been able to find one suitable one, Aaron and I were feeling a bit overwhelmed. One of the additional holes was hole 4, the one open field shot of the course, which admittedly is a dangerous hole, since the field is often used by other people, including parents with small children. We also were being pressured to take out hole 9, largely because the green area of the hole was a steep slope that had eroded over the years. Apparently it used to have ferns growing on the hillside until some renegade golfer took it upon himself to weed whack all the ferns away. All I know is that by the time I started playing Terrace, the hillside was bare.

After we’d found out that the grand plan was to remove six holes, we didn’t hear much more news on the subject. Then one Saturday morning while I was lounging in pajamas and playing video games, I got a phone call from Aaron. He said that he’d just gotten a call from Lowell, and that he was meeting with Ken from the parks department in about half an hour. It should be noted that Lowell is chronically bad about communicating important news ahead of time. So, shaken out of my comfortable relaxation, I pulled on some clothes and headed north to meet with Aaron, Lowell, and Ken. More on Saga of a Disc Golf Course Restructure - Part 3

Ever have one of those great ideas that would have been much better had you thought of them several months previous? Well, that is what has happened here.

As it is though, inspiration has come a bit late, so I’ll do the best I can to recreate the events leading up to the present. OK, from the beginning….
