Page 15
May - June 2003

The below photo's are a photo journal for my website visitors to enjoy.  I have been fortunate to have been able to travel from time to time and with each trip, I photograph turfgrass conditions that I encounter.  I will continue this forum and add to the photo's (and of course soil profile samples) as I continue to travel from place to place.

This is the newest addition to the Turf-Tec line of diagnostic tools, the Turf-Tec Mariotte Tubes for the ASTM 12 and 24 inch Infiltration Rings.

Lauderdale Stadium, spring training facility for the Baltimore Orioles. Robert Dexter is Stadium Operations Supervisor and Ed Bylica is Head Groundskeeper.
