Our New Walkway

Express to the Pro Shop 

Back Up Please

And there It Is.  A lovely slate walkway between the club drop and the Pro Shop.  It looks great - especially with just one cart on it.  It will be Robin Hodd vs Little John the first time you meet an oncoming golfer - one of you is going to have to give way and slog through the mud.  Which one will it be?  

Not Quite So Wide

Only 1 Lane of the Hutch
Seems like I owe someone an apology.  Not sure who he might be, but last week I accused an anonymous path designer of creating Ramp 17.5 from Saxon to the Hutch.  Turns out the slashing was larger than the slating.  The actual slate walkway is quite reasonable - quite nice and much smaller than the wide swath cut by the back hoe.  It's just the right size for a push cart and nowhere near big enough for a golf cart.   Guess the county got something right - oh, wait - it's only one lane.  Hope nobody's coming when I'm going.  They can't help themselves - still, not bad - have a look for yourself:

New Ramp to the Hutch

Or So Mike Says
Mike Belmont calls it "a new entrance ramp to the Hutchinson Parkway."  Woody called it a "drag strip for golf carts."  But what ever it is - IT IS BIG.  

The picture below is the new walking path between the bag drop and the pro shop.  I guess the county is expecting a lot of traffic:

full speed ahead

As you can see it is wide enough for an SUV.  The pallets in the foreground are loaded with slate, so this is going to be a formidable passage.  Not the walkway I was expecting.

We lost about eight feet of putting green and there is a line of white paint that threatens another six or eight fee at the pro shop end.  Can't tell if that was to direct the initial cut, or if there is more slicing to come.  Nevertheless it will be a different look come spring.

And while the new path will be impossible to miss - any one want to bet how long it takes before someone walks through the restaurant tables pulling their clubs between the tables?
