Turf School Day Eleven and Twelve

The past two days have been good. Wednesday we had our first rounds of quizzes in two of our harder classes. I do not know how I faired, but I think it went ok. After our quizzes we learned the insect orders and about wilts and bacterial blights of trees and ornamental plants.
Today we had two of our last "new" classes. We had an agronomy class, in which we discussed the history of golf at St. Andrews and after that we had a lab to help us with our insect learning. We will eventually be required to identify insects by looking at them through a microscope. It is not going to be fun, but in the end we will learn something.

Well I am excited for the upcoming weekend, mostly to see if the Jets or the Steelers will win. There are about 5 die-hard fans of each team in our class, so come Monday someone in the class will be really excited.

Thanks for reading, sorry for the missed day. I hope you all have an enjoyable evening
