Well I was cleaning our Michigan basement up and dragged this outta the dirt mound by the wall!!!! A very very old croquet set in what looks to be a hand made crate! Pretty sweet.
Those old croquet sets bring pretty good money at estate sales. I've bid on a couple but they always seemed to go higher than the top price I set for myself. Nice find!
Rrriiiggghhtt! "I totally missed it!" Pete, this is how it starts...with denial! You were just as excited the last three times you "discovered" it! Gotcha thinking now, huh?
I'm too cold to coherently think of a good response... I just finished plowing the driveway and my neighbors front b the road. MY GOSH THE WIND IS STRONG!
It's probably windier (new word?) down there, but I had -20 wind chill while I was shoveling...again...once I got home from the "W" word. Come to think of it, probably even colder when I was shoveling this morning before leaving for the "W" word!
Wife said it was -1F windchill when I came in. 15 minutes and I was all frozen shivers..... I had to go sit by the wood stove for a while before I went out again and finished. BRRRRR
Think how cold you'd be shoveling an area to play croquet in, let alone playing a whole game after shoveling..... Ok, so that sounded funnier in my head
Clearly you are the chosen one...it's all up to you my friend: Croquet will not survive to 2037 if young people do not take the sport up
Love Carhartts and fleece lined jeans! Heated handlebar grips on atv also helps as does a windshield. Biggest problem is sometimes face gets a bit cold as does the thumb on my right hand (throttle control).
