and the build goes on..and on...and on!!


The build is progressing - and we officially have a slide! It took 2 men, 5 hours, a couple nice sunburns, multiple pitchers of koolaid, and several attempts both with and without the assembly directions!

However, look at the results! It's coming along great, and I have to say, I have tested the slide out myself...the kids are going to LOVE it! Of course, in that process we also realized that the slide is not exactly up to the heavy duty adult load. But maybe if you haven't had a quarter pounder with cheese that day, you'd do alright!

Rails are going up, the clubhouse is complete (minus the sitting porch of course), and it's getting pretty close! Rylan is pretty excited and seems to think that his clubhouse windows work best for a fast-food drive up or a bank. What a lifestyle!



Here's a view from inside the clubhouse, as well as a view that shows off from one of the tall tours, showing the bridge! Yes, there is a bridge to connect the two towers!

Next up is the swing arm, finishing railings, the rock wall....and more to come. You'll have to stay posted...and then come to play and celebrate the completion!!
