Since the dirt bank will be dug out on Monday I figured I could get away with a little play time without gettin' into trouble for tearing up the yard.

**jaros44sr** · 09-06-2008, 09:43 AM

Cool, don't put the wall back, private playground for big kids

Chevyman63 · 09-06-2008, 10:25 AM

That looks like fun.

After seeing your pics I looked out the window and started thinking about the hill out back...nah I'd better not.

Cool pics.

Geeez man. What's up with going for the "short" side of the dirt bank??

yeah, as it was for a short time the blazer was a bulldozer.

BTW, the top of that bank is 6ft bubby.

NICE! I would have loved to see your neighbor’s faces.

**Yukon Jack** · 09-07-2008, 09:37 AM

Now that's what I call suburban wheeling!

**jaros44sr** · 09-07-2008, 12:03 PM

Bet ya could make it the long way, park the wrecker on top of the hill and winch off of that (take off your hardtop in case I'm wrong). I'll spot for ya, Its not like ya didn't roll it once

That sir, was what is commonly known as a 'flop' not a 'roll', please get the story straight.

Your spotting prowess is fine, I'd point it in any direction you said too...

OK, so let me get this strait, if you break any one plane at one time, it becomes a flop, but if you break two planes, then it becomes a roll. If that is the case then my truck beat ya, because PO rolled it

Another reason we should all live on the same street...

Just thinking about those big piles of sand...

Got home yesterday and every kid in the 'hood was over here playing and having a blast!

It was great to see, laughing/screaming, running, jumping and gettin' filthy dirty!
