I wouldn't care if I lost the damned thing, it's a decent seat in a pinch but mostly all it's good for is work.
It's strapped, there's one on each side connected to the barrow struts. You can see the Red one on this side.

Wheelbarrows have wonderful, intrinsic, aerodynamic qualities to them. Seeing them riding unstrapped is quite exciting, as long as dude is in the lane beside you!
$120/yd isn't that bad. The cost of all materials has gone up considerably the past few years.
Here's to a safe run, and have fun playin in the mud, Steve.

Say Steve, mind if I drive from the back seat too?
. A little red flag on that overhanging re-bar? Something tied on with Lowes string guaranteed to blow of on the first few miles will do nicely
. Wheel barrel has the downward pressure at speed
, that's all from way, way back.

I've got a roll of Red duct tape but it's buried in the bed of my truck, and I'm not gonna fool with getting it out. It's only hanging over about 32", so flagging it would be more a courtesy than a requirement.

However, they raise a considerable amount of cash for charity with it, and seem to have a lot of fun at the same time.

Yeah, that's our yard. Still have a few weeds to pull, volunteers are always welcome
Other than a vicious headwind around Adelanto and a trailer tire blowout just South of Lone Pine the trip up was good. Got the house foundation ready to be inspected, which will likely happen early next week.
Still a little bit on the chilly side overnight:
Typical outside column support, there are 13 of these for support of the roof trusses
If it weren't for my finger, this would be a decent pic

37 yards of concrete, and unless you crawl under the house you'll never even see it.
Got the stem wall up, still need to put up the 16 columns before calling for inspection.
Side note, we finally got the blessing from Mono County to put a trailer on site. I love my truck, but I'll be very happy not having to sleep in it's bed every night
