I had planned on drilling the hole for the last I Beam today. I went out to take off the extension and put back on the 18" auger. Yeah, by the time I walked to the backyard to gather all my tools and get the tractor I decided it wasn't a good choice. Instead I spray painted the 3 I Beams - as high as I could reach for the 2 that were planted. Not exactly strenuous work but by the time I got into the house I was soaked.
