The Shumway Corral

This summer Dad worked on the Shumway corral down the road. Funny that we call it the Shumway corral...it seems like it should be called the Howe corral. But the land was called the Shumway place, and we already have a corral at Glen's house. So to avoid confusion, we call it the Shumway corral.

We started working on it in 2007. I did a little bit the first summer to help clear the area, but Dad has largely done it by himself. With a tractor to lift the heavy stuff, and straighten the small building inside the corral. The bulls knocked out one side of it and it was tilting alot.

Dad's pretty pleased with it. He even put up a cross post at the large gate. That's a first. I told him I want one at the house, where you turn at our driveway.

This corral is built to last.
