Anyone lucky enough to enter the grounds of the famed Augusta National Golf Club knows what I mean when I say it is like the modern day Garden of Eden. Every spring when the golfing world turns its attention to the Masters tournament, it seems like mother nature opens her arms in greeting. The azaleas are in full bloom, the grass manicured and the purest of green, and the air a perfect temperature. However, this meticulous landscaping must have some side effect to nature itself. Little is known about the grounds keeping operation here. Trust me I know. The secrets behind that green grass might as well be a national treasure as far as they are concerned. However, one can expect that a fair amount of chemical fertilizer is used to keep the property pristine. We all know that when chemicals get involved, there are negative side effects. With Rae's creek running through the famed "Amens Corner" and depositing itself into the near Lake Olmstead. which is known to be polluted, the question arises, "Is Augusta National fertilizing pollution in Lake Olmstead?" Just some fish food for thought....
