Default Built a bridge

Well had a productive saturday...

We have a creek in our back yard that over time become almost impassable with the tractor...here is the creek crossing before


So I picked up an old mobile home frame a couple months ago from a good buddy...


And started to build a bridge with my dad.

Got some post set


Frame set close to were we wanted it...had to dig out to level it



Getting the boards put down...we found some 2 3/4 self tapping screws that made life easy


Both trucks down there


And done...all in all about 6 hours of work. Still need to make ramps up to it so we can get the lawn tractor across and it not hit the mowing deck
