I recently visited the Tetherow Golf Club in Bend Oregon. I went threw the new shop and took a tour of the course.
The course and the shop where great. I enjoyed my trip.
Below are some pictures that I took while I was there.

Kind of small but I still got my work done.

Harold and I built my bench over the last couple days.
Keith helped out with it while he cleaned and waxed equipment.

Keith loves to wax all the equipment
Paul Wilks Page 2 - Golf Course Manager

But some times I have to point out his flaws.
Paul Wilks Page 2 - Golf Course Manager

He loves to be corrected.
Paul Wilks Page 2 - Golf Course Manager

He always act respectfully and take criticism well.

Harold finished my bench today and it looks great.
Paul Wilks Page 2 - Golf Course Manager

This bench is solid.

This has been a great project and helps keep us out of the snow.

The snow is still falling and piling up fast.
I wonder if I'll be able to make it into work tomorrow.

You haven't been cold until you have run one of these in the snow

I know, enough with the pics of my new shop.
Ok. Just a few more

As you can see, we haven't organized the equipment yet.

This is why it's a good idea to check for wire rubs. I had to replace every wire one at a time in this old mower.
I took these photos at the Vet's in March 2008
