Horseshoe Pit And Rules
Link to pit dimensions and guidelines, also some rules and links, but better rules are down below
http://www.sportsknowhow.com/horseshoes/pit-dimensions/horseshoe-pit-dimensions.html
What I find a bit odd about these official rules is that we have always played that a "leaner" was worth 2 points, and the leaner must be touching the stake and be elevated above the plane of the level of the sand or clay by the fact of touching the stake. And these shall be the official Horseshoe Rules of the G2, added in the leaner.

Granite Fireplace Surround
This work is all ready to go. I am looking for a granite setter with his own equipment to get this done,
I figure it's 2 days, set the floor the first day, polish edges, and then next day set the wall and finish the grout.
Its Black Galaxy granite so it needs to be perfect to reflect light as it will.
The layout is shown pretty clearly by looking at the pictures. Contact me with any questions.
The granite, thinset, grout, cement board, all on site and ready to go.
Please indicate your experience with granite or marble, and send 2 or 3 pictures of projects you have completed in the last 5 years.
