Bill Muerle
we talked it over on the phone about doing such a project .at the time he set out to see if he could hire me to do the build for there organazation i told him i would get some prices on materials and labor to do the job
i had thought it over after i had got prices on materials and i decided that i would donate my time and labor towards the cause if they supplied the materials beings there only a small group of pepole trying to keep the history alive of the pony express .this i also wanted to do because ive always wanted to build somthing that is larger than life in size .this is now the largest silhouett to date that ive ever built. it stands 10 ft tall x 12 ft long and weights appox. 1100 lbs. i told a few friends about what i was about to get involved with and everyone that i talked to got excited about it and wanted to be a part in it i thought it was amazing how much help we recived . Special thanks to all that donated there time and efforts towards the cause
List of the pepole who donated there time and efforts are myself Bill Muerle Decorative Iron Plus /Larry Mcpherson /Lyon County room tax board/ DIS Backhoe service Vuki Wilson/A-One window cleaning steave goss/ Pauls paint shop / Capital City Concreate/Pay Geary Valley View Ranch/ Bill Miles Constuction
