Playground Rising

Having acquired a large sunroof window from a defunct grocery store, my Grandpa, Dad, and Husband set about framing a back yard playground for the kids:

Our Dane Fortune supervises the cementing of the posts:


Next weekend they plan to install a deck with a slide and start working on a crossbeam for swings. The kids will have the autumn to play on it, and next year the sky is the limit.

In fact, once the kids are in for the night we might put a couple chairs on the deck and enjoy ourselves. :)

The kids are going to enjoy their new clubhouse and maybe so will the grown ups ;-)
