| Getting While You Can |
Over 3" rain last week, everything fertilized, mostly caught up on mowing, and nice weather all combined are making the course look pretty nice. If the forecast is correct we will be showing moisture stress by this time next week so now would be the best to bring out a guest to show off the place. I went around and took some pictures of the way things look now and I will use them as a compare and contrast a little later on (again, assuming the forecast for +36 for highs +19 for lows is correct).
Things of late to note could be the tree falling on 2 fairway.

Both trees were Ponderosa Pine which mostly likely means it was the Western Pine Beetle (vs. Northern). We've haven't been running a enough fall staff for the last couple years to keep on top of the scouting, falling and removing infected trees and my hunch is there is more out there.
