Damage from the storm

I last posted pics of the washout before the additional 1" of rain - here are the pics of the final damage Monday morning. That second storm did the most damage with the washout already started from Saturday.

We had to re-float all the areas that had bad washout and re-seed. The sod around the greens also washed out in a few areas which we have started repairing. One of the worst things of having sand that has already been seeded wash out into the sod is the bent grass that will now germinate in these low areas in the Bermuda grass. We will just have to spend some time spraying out this bent once the Bermuda sod is established. You have to be careful with what you spray on the new sod so you don't set it back.
