We received a load of bluegrass this morning and got all but 8 pallets laid on the course. Unfortunately our fork lift broke down and is out of commission. We need to come up with a creative way to be able to get this sod out tomorrow. In fact, I had to turn away a load of fertilizer that was to be delivered as we have no way of unloading it off the truck. We have numerous pieces of very old equipment. Our intermediate rough mower quite possibly mowed it's last pass today. If that is the case for this 20 year old mower, we may not have intermediate rough this year on the golf course until we are able to purchase a new mower. Head Equipment Tech, Paul Dalton, will do everything he can to revive it. There comes a time when sinking money into something this old just doesn't make sense. We have been frugal for a number of years and it may have caught up to us. Today was not a great day for equipment!
