Installed one of these today with our church’s head-trustee, Mark. We dug and poured the footer a week ago and finally got the final pieces delivered just yesterday and made time today to get the project finished.
It’s the nicest outdoor hoop I’ve ever played on. It’s fully adjustable from 7’6″ to 10′ and YES, I lowered it to 9-foot and jammed on it dozens of times already! In fact, one of my students, Brad came over tonight and we shot around for almost an hour before Jess and Ella and I headed to our weekly homegroup.
Good times. I can’t wait to make it a daily habit to go play basketball in my backyard!
G’News on the Goal, Sport! How well I remember doing the “lower rim” thing. Henrietta’s goal (remember?) was accidently put up 6 inches too short … and I didn’t tell neighbor Ralph until his chest had almost burst with his “Not-As-Bad-As-I-Expected-To-Be” comment! His entire high school days passed before his 30-something eyes! We are safe in Boiling Springs and will conduct Miss Bobbie’s funeral tomorrow afternoon. Expect to see lots of faces with memories. Love ya! Dad
