Just wondering if your ball stays upright in your coupler, I have pulled my trailer twice and the ball has a tendency to lean to one side. I have tightened the coupler to the point where the ball wouldn't move and backed it off until it turns with a little resistance.

Remember to make it strong you do not want too many joints. If you put a short piece of post under the main post , that joint is the weakest, if you have very high winds the shear load will push it off thats where she will give. If you pour up to the post it eliminates that. When they built this they should have dumped concrete in the holes and let her dry, then set green 6x and back filled with stone. The stone allows the water to drain and the lumber to dry out ( avoid dirt also) The other option is a column splice http://www.theporchpeople.com/7pp-splice.shtml but here the length and bolt placement is also critical and they do make mending plates for this. I would set up some corner braces and some kickers to strengthen the corner and allow you to support it during the repair,and once done I would leave the bracing unless it's in the way of a door or window. http://www.midwestmanufacturing.com/MidwestManufacturing/project.do?id=65

You shouldn't have concrete in direct contact with wood. The concrete draws moisture and the woods absorbs it. It will over time rot or draw termites or other wood boring insects. You should use plastic sill shield under green lumber or metal when in contact with concrete. I would clean out the hole and pour concrete in it, if you have rot along the bottom consider pouring a rat wall and slip a sill in and bolt it up and bracket the bottom. If the post is solid at the surface, weld up a corner bracket, a couple inches longer and wider than the post with bolt holes. U can put a thin piece of plastic under the metal and bolt into the concrete, then bolt up the post to the bracket. If the post is rotted farther up, clean it out and slip a sonatube, plumb it and pour it.

Working nights this week training a new supervisor. On the way to work I stop by subway to grab a sandwich. Swipe my debit card, declined ??? Now I know my pension check just made it there, my pay check should be there and my wife's check. I scramble to get my sandwich and then call my Credit Union. Yep I am one of 23 people who had my card "compromised", apparently I am told I did not loose anything because they stopped it. The lady before me was hit to the tune of $3500.00. I was also told that they have seen an increase in false charges where a clerk at a gas station, restaurant... swipes your card through the gas stations device and then their cell phone or portable device and adding a small additional charge. The charge is usually small and odd numbers to pass scrutiny and people are so accustomed to using debit cards now they are not in the habit of balancing their statements. Morale, do not hand your card to the clerk, get receipts and reconcile your statement and dispute charges asap. AARRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!
