One of a kind!

     As most people know, mechanics can be one of a kind. As most superintendents know it would be unbelievably difficult to not have a mechanic around from day to day. Our mechanic, Jim Bandy, has been at Monterey Pines for over 32 years. He has seen a lot and been through a lot during his tenure. Jim is our resident "Macgyver". He can fix just about anything.
     The picture below shows what most of us see when we come in the shop. That is Jim, hard at work adjusting reels after one of our fairway mowers came in to the shop.

     This last week we unfortunately had to go without Jim for a few days as he tended to his wife while she had some health issues. Jim, we are really looking forward to having you back on Monday. Though we may try to fill your shoes while you were gone we will all have a sigh of relief with your return. Thanks for all you do in and out of the shop!
