Bob....not sure that was sand. I think it was "pond scum" residue that appears as the water level recedes due to lack of rain/golf course watering. Residue from runoff/fertilizers etc. Not very attractive.

Saturday's .5 inch of rain has done wonders for the ponds. I'll be riding by that area today and will be curious to see if it looks more normal.

I could be wrong...just my opinion.
