Trysting Tree GC flood

[pulledabill]

This is Trysting Tree GC in Corvallis OR. Home of the Oregon St Beavers golf team. The picture on the top was yesterday. Pic on the bottom was taken today.  The river is the Willamette R. which flows  2 blocks west of me.  Crazy amounts of rain with lotsof late snowfall. The river is expected to crest tomorrow some time.

Wow. Yeah, the West Coast has been hammered with rain this year. Hope you can dry out soon.

Yeah, I just left Corvallis this morning after visiting my dad.  Hwy 34 is the bridge out of Corvallis shown in pictures was how I got into town on Monday.  Obviously, I wasn't leaving that way today.  I took Hwy 20 north to Albany which is 10 miles from Corvallis; took me an hour with all the traffic being re-routed.  

BTW, Trysting Tree GC pro Sean Arey grew up here in the Tri-Cities WA.  I was a State-rated Volleyball referee with his mom here in SE Washington.

Another BTW, Trysting Tree GC was built on an OSU experimental agricultural farm.  I worked on that farm while I was attending OSU back in 1966.

Nice little course and one of my favorite restaurants.

A new restaurant just opened. Rudys closed and moved downtown to the old McGraths building.

Wow!!  Rudy's had a pretty steady clientele; not just golfers.  I hope the new restaurant is decent, rather than just golf course food.  My wife and I like to play there, but haven't in a few years.
