Tuesday


As I previously stated, irrigation consultant, Dave Regan has been on site the past two days marking exact locations of sprinkler heads.  Using basic geometry, it is very important that the sprinkler heads are properly spaced and leveled to be sure irrigation water is properly distributed.  Each white pipe sticking out of the ground represents the location of a new sprinkler head.


Above is the view down #1 fairway standing on #2 Jones tee.  Before this morning, vegetation blocked any view back down #1 fairway.  This is just another beautiful vista that we exposed and an example of what makes this such a fantastic property.  It's hard to believe that views like this as well as many of our water features stayed hidden and covered by trees and shrubs for so long.


Our bridge on #1 was not only stained a dark color to soften and hide the bright tan treated lumber look, but we also applied an 18" strip of non-slip coating.  The anti-slip surface is created by using the material below, which is made for treating the bed of pick-up trucks.  About 10 years ago, I experimented with this product on the boat dock walkway and it turned out to be durable and effective.  I was concerned at first that it would adhere to wood like it does metal.  10-12 years later, it is still very effective.
