    Backyardchickens.com made the radio

    Odd Slab Already on Property

    With the price of new concrete and that slab being in what looks like good condition, I'd say Score! I believe that slab was for a building and your 2X4 walls do go on that raised lip. the small slab outside the large slab was were the door used to be (so you don't have to stand in the mud or...
