"1 down, 7 more to go"




















Remember the last time you were watching a game down at the field?

Bases loaded, the batter drives the ball into the outfield, the go-ahead run is rounding third and coming hard to the plate and you start to jump to you feet to cheer him on...

Then you remember where you are; sitting top level on the rickety old bleachers. Now you are afraid the whole thing will come crashing down. You quietly settle back in your seat and wish the rest of the fans would do the same. While you're anxiously looking down at the ground you miss the play at home...again.

Well, no more.

We've begun the ball-field renovation project. First priority is to build new bleachers, and as you can see in the photo, one is complete.

For the next week or two we'll finish construction of all eight, then work on a covered picnic / cooking area.

More info as it happens.
