We all played an eighteen-hole round of disc golf at my home course today. It was a lot of fun to be outside but it was very cold. There were places both north and south of the area that had gotten a few inches of snow. It was frosty but not snowy. By the end of the round, some areas in the sun were melting off and getting a bit muddy and slick.
I won the round with a +1 score, to a two-way second-place tie at +11.
My new friction gloves are excellent and help a lot with the grip in the cold weather. If anything I tend to have trouble putting too much spin and power in a late release on certain discs because of the enhanced grip. It is a nice problem to have and certainly something that I can get used to with a bit more practice throwing with gloves on.
The river was a nice color today:
It was running very low so there was no need to worry that much on hole eight. When the river is high discs can wash away or get lost under the water on a bad miss. I have not done that recently but certainly had my share of lost discs on windy days in the past.
Some sky colors:
My friend had a name for this sunlight diffraction pattern but I don't remember it now. The word was something that had a 'dog' sound in it - sundawg? He said there is usually a matching color display on the other side of the sun but today there was no cloud there.

indeed the view of the river that you photographed is really good and also the view of the forest on the river's edge is also very beautiful
I always hope you are in good health and always successful in your practice.

Congratulations, your post has been upvoted by @dsc-r2cornell, which is the curating account for @R2cornell's Discord Community.
I'm always happy to hear that you are back to playing golf with your friends, and you won this round, even though the cold weather is still helping you with your new gloves. from your two photos it looks like the sky is so clear today, and are there many wild eagles there?
congratulations you managed to win the game with a score of 1+ even though it was cold and muddy and slippery and have tried very well to win this game, and your gloves are really needed to warm your hands in cold conditions and can play even better, and the view of the river looks really nice and the clear blue sky looks really cool.
Nice river shot
Dear @lightsplasher , as I told you, they continue to give positive results, the use of gloves to play, as it alleviates the cold in the hands and offers you better shots to win. successes
