So We Were Told

Yo yo yo, so we were told

That long rocks go in long holes

It was clear.

 

We fell for these lies, I fear

But in time, through actions so BOLD

You will hear...

 

That we put long rock benches in long dirt trenches.

 

We tore up the ground and carted gravel there from a mound.

 

We ripped lantern poles from the earth and filled these (less long) holes with freshly painted poles of worth!

 

In 9 days there were hips and hoorays.

Campgrounds, done. 948 won.
