Just a couple more to get you in the Christmas spirit hopefully!
Oh and in case you're interested how we made the Christmas lights look like stars, here's a link to how to do that. Interesting stuff!
...
We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season and gets to spend time with their family! Maybe we'll get a little snow this year and we can build a real snowman!
Happy Holidays everyone!!

This is a link to a really cool video filmed at Payne Sod Farm in Manteno, Illinois, by our friends at Sod Solutions and Xaircraft America.
I was there (this is Scott Murff by the way) and got to see this being filmed and also took my own video. So in case you can't figure out how the first video was filmed, check out the one below to see how it was done. Very fun technology and I think Murff Turf may need one of these in the near future!

The previous post contained pictures from May 30. These are pictures from the same field, approximately the same spot, just one week later after we've harvested. A couple of these are panorama photos so hopefully they show up okay for you. I've kind of gotten into panorama photos lately.
If you haven't done so already you can check out or Facebook page and see other pictures and posts also.

Lindy took a couple of pics yesterday that I wanted to share. Not much to say about them other than this is how a field looks before we start harvesting and that it will look quite a bit different after a couple of days having the harvesters out there!

We had another cold night last night. The temperature got down around 34 degrees. That's not a problem for the grass really except that we also had a frost on the ground! Frost is what takes the color out of the grass this time of year.
Our grass was much greener until we got a couple of frosts on February 14th and 15th. Those two frosts really knocked a lot of the color out of our grass. And then with the frost last night it just keeps the grass brown and dormant and will take longer for it to be real green.
The grass will really start to grow once the temps at night can stay above 60 degrees.
Just wanted to give an update on how the grass is coming along. Thanks for checking in with us!...
