The first week of the new year is wrapping up with the usual Friday-Saturday rain.  This is ridiculous and enough is enough!  (Hah, like I can do something about it). Anyway the course remains very soft and limits us putting any equipment on the course.  The mild weather allowed us to change cups and rake bunkers several times this week.  Creek and pond bank work is slow going due to the amount of moisture in these low areas.  There is plenty of firewood available so come and get it.


 
Too much rain helps point out where drainage is required but it needs to freeze or dry up before it can be fixed.  This water needs to be diverted to the hazard on the right on the 9th hole.
 
 
There has been considerable erosion this year especially under trees and will require extensive seeding in the rough in 2019.  It's going to be a busy year when it stops raining.
 
 
With the amended rules of golf a new hazard line has been created on hole 2.
 
 
Another view.

Come and get it!
