Just Enough Rain to Annoy

After exceptional weather, we got hit by rain... and it's slowed things down a touch. There are sandy areas we have been able to work, some odds and ends saved for this weather, but a longer dry spell would have been nice. Good news is we have a cold snap of -8 coming next week. It could be a very early morning... a middle of the night excursion into bulldozing to get key points done while the ground firms up.


This is a photo of the 2nd part of the par-5 3rd. Tomorrow I'll post a sketch of how it will look like. The autobahn ausfahrt is the light colored section to the left. I was planning a bunker in this area, and the way the sand piled up, and where I pushed a pathway for the bulldozer has it looking a whole lot like Hell Bunker at St. Andrews Old.









Hell as it looked in the 1950's.
