Renovation shift this week with the final greens complex demolition underway and first green surround sod installation complete. Playing in the dirt has been fun but time to grow some grass!

Pattern Recognition is also the form of intelligence that causes the most stress. You will see things that others do not. You'll feel crazy. Things will be *so obvious* to you, and others will just deny it.

First mow on overseed is always so rewarding. This one especially so after some long 100°+ days. 1 course down, 2 to go!

Thought I was safe from flooding out in the desert but boy was I wrong. Monsoon popped up yesterday afternoon and packed a serious punch.

Teddi says this course could use some work… course was closed in 2018 and turned into a nature preserve. Cool seeing Mother Nature reclaim the desert. 🌵

Wasn’t expecting an invasion of little grass frogs in the desert. Millions of these guys invading after a 0.25” rain last week
