Parker's homemade high jump

Since day 1- Parker has always been an inventor, builder, creator and hard worker! We shall see what he ends up doing in life with these qualities. After he took 1st place in the high jump at the District T&F meet he asked us if he could look on Craigslist for a "porta-pit". Ha! We assured him that a port-pit would not be a very practical addition to our property as it would be soaked with rain or melted snow and become moldy! But, that didn't stop Parker! He invented and built his own porta-pit all on his own. He used 8 snow tires, plywood, an old air mattress, blanket, cones and PVC piping. We all loved watching our boy practice his fun skill for majority of the day.
