We got a call a few weeks ago from your Uncle Nate, who said that his very sweet neighbor had a swingset he wanted to give away. We immediately said we wanted it, and made arrangements for your dad to go pick it up.
"Swingset" in this case is a massive understatement. Play Fortress might be closer. There are elementary schools that don't have a playground this big. When I saw it for the first time in the neighbor's yard, I couldn't believe that your dad and Nate thought they could actually dismantle it and get it out to Alberton with only the help of Great-Grandpa Ron's old truck. I should know by now that this is the exact kind of challenge that those Burbach boys live for. Need a wood shop built in a day? They're on it. Need a 300-pound water heater dropped through a hole into the basement? Consider it done.
A few hours later, we heard a rumble in the driveway, and this is what we saw driving in:
I immediately went and grabbed the camera, because if they ever decide to host a Redneck Rose Bowl, I'm quite certain this could be a prize-winning parade float.
Next up: Assembly!
Love,
Mom
I would like to see a picture of the completed swing set/jungle gym please. - Stephenson
