Man the past couple of days have been some we need to bottle up and keep for a later date, but as usual all good things must come to an end. It looks like we are headed for some wet weather beginning Wednesday and possibly lingering on into Friday with an approaching cool front coupled with remnants of Hurricane Rick.
As the days begin to shorten and the temperatures stay a little cooler, the grass will begin to slow down a bit and we can turn our attention away from our summer routine and more towards winter projects. This winter most of our efforts will be put toward removing pine trees that have been stricken with pine bark beetles. My last count had the number of trees at 52, however that number seems to be changing everyday.
This week we do not have a lot on the schedule besides our usual mowing. The DWGA will be hosting an Interclub tournament here on Thursday so that will be a short work day for us. Hopefully the weather will not put a damper on those activities. It looks like the Deerwood Rack has put together a volunteer group to come out and fill divots on Wednesday morning at 9:30, so if you have the oppurtunity, come on out and join in on the fun.
Last week we began exploring the origin of the water leak in front of #1 green and after hours of exposing irrigation line, we were left scratching our heads in confusion. At this point we have not located the source of the problem, however the area has dried up and has returned back to its normal state, for now. We will continue to monitor the situation on a daily basis and take any measures necessary to extinguish this problem.
As always feel free to pass along any comments or questions you may have. Chris and I will be attending a great educational seminar today hosted by Syngenta, which will give us some insight on new pesticides and programs that they have for 2010.
