82, playing preferred lies through the green and in sand bunkers. 32 (f) degrees with a 17-20 mph breeze made it a tad uncomfortable for the first three holes. Then I warmed up and found the stroll very pleasant.

Looking back at 2023, it was a sort of Meh kind of year. I had some good rounds and of course several disasters. Most of the rounds were sort of okay but nothing special. Round count was 103, better than 2022 at least in volume. My raw unadjusted scoring average was once again right around 81 (81.4 ...

New "grumble". The Minister and I both tested positive yesterday. I thought we both had colds. The silver lining for me is that it's going to blow a few things up at my work, which might actually show them that they shouldn't have laid off as many people as they did. Was there something t...
