B'ball Briggs

Briggs has really taken to basketball recently. The ACC and NCAA men's competitions last month helped pique his interest. The Folly came with a pole and a shabby backboard. The old backboard is long gone but the pole is very sturdy. Uncle David and Aunt Brenda provided the new backboard and rim; Briggs got a new ball from the Easter Bunny, and we got a new installation kit on-line this week. It all came together this evening. We left the rim at about 6 1/2 feet. Not nearly regulation, but higher than what Briggs is accustomed to. He can make a shot with concentration, but has to work at it. Seems like a pretty good set-up for the time being.
