The view from the middle of the fairway
on #3, toward the green. We used a pan and a big bulldozer to knock a little bit of the ridge out of the middle
of this hole, so that the green is visible sooner. |

Hope you like the pumphouse. In the front
left are two of the three big motors, in the back are our two 1500 gallon fertigation tanks (no more midsummer
Milorganite spreading!). The tanks and their two tiny pumps are separated from the pump skid with a short block
wall since the fertilizer is corrosive. The green walls are just insulated. |

The view from the middle of #1 fairway,
looking back at the tee areas. They show up as slight terraces at this time. Our sediment trap is working well.
There was a lot of tree debris left everywhere, as well as big stump holes. We're using the big teeth of a loader
bucket to scrape a lot of the twigs, bark, and roots off of the surface. We're also sending several people around
to manually remove large sticks and rocks. |

The Blecavator is used to prepare a seedbed.
It buries debris a few inches and leaves nicer, soft soil on top. This is the rough to the left of #3. None of
our existing tractors had enough power to run the Blecavator, so we had to spring for another tractor. Ugh. |

 |
Seeding the rough on #3. This is kind
of over the hill, but it looks back toward the tee (and the monster electricals). We're hoping that we'll get enough
rain to support these new seeds, since we can't irrigate the rough. |

|
|
 |
Looking toward the green on #4 (a par
3). Again, note the debris. There's not much shape to this hole yet, but there are quite a few trees to getcha. |
