Back for Bunker Work

It was cloudy, not too warm and rained yesterday, not a bad thing for grow-in. The last thing you want is scorching heat.

Today we had it clear, warm, and little windy.

It's been 8-months since I've been here last and the challenges of grow-in are all obvious. It's not the prettiest stage of development, waiting and babying the grass to get knit together, but it is what it is.

Some areas have come along fine, others, usually the more exposed and sandy areas need more TLC (tender loving care)... which means water, fertilizer, and in some places overseeding or sodding.

Grow-in just might be the toughest job in the business... I'm happy to only design and build these things.
















The maintenance/grow-in crew, along with the latest in Soviet evening wear to the far right.
