Horseshoe Backboards in!

Well even though the temperature was over a 100 degrees Lloyd was outside cutting, bolting, digging, cementing! I was inside the air conditioned house reading the paper. Did I mention i am not a fan of temps over 100. lol he had a goal of having it in before our summer party Aug 28th. Well all we have to do now is find some cold rolled steel 1 inch and have them cut it to 36 inches and he will did a hole and cement it in. the horse shoes were already purchased at 2 different garage sales for 2.00 we have like 12 shoes. We only need 4. We are almost done, but now the homework of finding the important part comes. A lot of people just use re bar but that's not what should be used. we even have the correct length for the back boards for distance apart. I can see many nights out there throwing shoes already! I hope my arm makes it and doesn't die.

  1. That looks like a whole lot of fun! What temp do you think it will be by August 28th for the party? I shudder to think! We got alot done around these parts too! Productive weekends are always great. Glad at least 1 of us has Air Conditioning - i think i had a heat stroke!
