An inch of rain over the weekend has once again created some impressive ponds on the low areas of the course. Dave, the mechanic of 40 years, commented this morning that he has never seen so much water on holes 6 and 7. This is the third significant rainfall event this winter, and despite all of the rain, the course is still snow covered. From Friday to today, the snow depth on 6 green went from 13" to 8", and the forecast isn't calling for melting temperatures until Friday. Below are some pictures of the course from this morning. Enjoy (?).

The pond by 6 and 7 (above and below) is bigger than it was in February, and it was the biggest that we had ever seen in February. The forward tee on 6 is nearly an island tee, and you would have a 200 yard carry to reach the fairway as it is now. |

This babbling brook connects the (wanted) pond on 5 to the (unwanted) pond shown above. |

The water by 3 green and 4 tee didn't fit in one picture (above and below). |
Alright spring, we're ready for your arrival.
