Superintendents are practices at explaining things that are difficult to explain; some things are destined to remain unexplained.

A Golf Course Superintendent and an NFL coach have this in common: an adept ability to change plans in the middle of the game. (8/11/17)

A foolish Superintendent weighs down his staff; a wise one gives them an anchor. (8/10/17)

Shortages often precede tragedy, and when they do not, it remains a tragedy of a different, often deeper, kind.  (8/9/17)

Being with friends is different than being at work; I say it again, privileged is the Superintendent who works with his friends.  (8/8/17)

A young Superintendent believes he surpasses him who was before him, and an experienced one believes he builds on him who preceded him; a wise one knows he who comes after him has surpassed him, because he was before him.  (8/7/17)

An ounce of anxiety can destroy a ton of joy. (8/6/17)

A Superintendent makes his living working on the edge. (8/5/17)

Most golf courses have only one Superintendent; I say it again, at times, a Superintendent labors with companions called Solitude and Loneliness. (8/4/17)

A young Superintendent finds gratitude in the presence of happiness; a wise one maintains it in the absence of joy.  (8/3/17)
