It would certainly be nice if mother nature would wake up and realize that it's supposed to be the middle of May.  Not only is it very cool this morning, we have a light frost on the golf course that is keeping us from getting to golf course work right away.  This is late for frost, but certainly not unheard of, in 2003, I actually remember having a frost on June 1st.  That was late.  Many people say that you are safe to plant frost sensitive flowers outside, but to be truly safe you need to wait until Memorial Day.  Our flowers are coming this week, and given the way this spring has played out, I hope that we are going to be safe from frost. 

Even though the frost keeps us from working on the course, it's nice once in awhile to have one to get some things done off the course.  Right now the guys are working on patching some cart path pot holes, cleaning inside the shop, and cutting up some branches and trees that fell yesterday.  Not having been out on the course yet, I don't know the full extent of what is on the ground, but there are two trees between the 15th hole and 18th green that were blown down yesterday.  Hopefully those two trees are the only things that were damaged, they really aren't important to the course and were leaning ash trees that were already infected with Emerald Ash Borer.
