Photo: What a difference water makes

Golfers tee off on green grass Tuesday at Hillcrest Golf Club. A large patch of dry, brittle ground can be seen behind them. The contrast shows what a difference water makes on the irrigated lawns at Hillcrest versus the nonirrigated parts of the course. The course relies on non-treated water pulled directly from the Animas River, sometimes called gray water. The city of Durango canceled its Fourth of July fireworks show this year because of dry conditions. (Jerry McBride/Durango Herald)
