It happened!!!!

 BEFORE.....
What the shaft looked like.
 About 2 years ago I bought an old rusted Merry Go Round off Craigs list with dreams of it spinning in our backyard.
 I finally got determined enough to try and get this thing restored.

 This is the miracle worker himself-Mike Sampson.  
 He built totally from scratch the shaft for the Merry Go Round to spin on.


 This is it.



We had it painted with special paint to look brand new.
 After 3 days of waiting for the cement to set.......We invited friends and had a ribbon cutting ceremony!!!!
 There were speeches delivered, and a countdown and SNIPPP!!!!!
 It is AWESOME!!!!!
