Props and Carpenters Needed.

Also, we wonder if there may be some talented carpenter (not the singer) among us that might be able to build some long, sturdy picnic benches; Durable enough for 4 kids at a time to stand and even dance on.

The props are:

4 large milk crates (or something similar)
a saddle
a butter churner
Director's chair
a couch (sort of old fashioned, long enough to squeeze 5 or so)
not picky, any couch may work
rocking chair
2 fancy seat covers (usually used for dinning chairs at weddings etc..)
a bike that appears older that may work for Sound of music
long rope for cowboys
bails of hay

23 days and counting.....
