We had to scrounge around to find tools to free the stainless steel ball. A giant board for a fulcrum, a large stick for a wedge and a metal tube to hack at the restricting rocks. Sharie and I provided encouragement and caution to the men, comments like "you're going to get a hernia" and other wise advice. After two hours of this, I was bored, so started the long trek back. They claim the ball was freed, but since it was filled with sand and water it weighed a tad bit (say over 500 pounds) I have to admit it was very entertaining to watch the entire show. So if anyone would like a stainless steel ball they are welcome to it. The tide was coming in, so can only assume the ball may go back into hiding!
