Looking for some help in getting our concrete patio done. I have no skills or clue when it comes to building forms and prepping the area.

The benefits of participating in this event are numerous and great, some of them are

***Endless amounts of your favorite beverage!***

***Enough food to stuff a pig!***

***An open invitation to all Cochran bar-b-ques!***

***And many, many more!***

Act now and you'll also be eligable for this once only web offer of getting a good physical workout!

Contact me for more details on this once in a lifetime opportunity!
