Play Set, part 2




I was able to add supports to the swing upright a couple of weeks ago. Last weekend I put the deck in and added the ladder and wall where hand holds will go, for a simulated rock wall. Tonight all three boys were trying everything out at the same time. Kind of cool.


The rail is kind of temporary; there will be one eventually, but I'm not certain yet of the height. It will provide support for upright slats that will block certain parts of walls for safety.
We're saving right now to buy about $100 worth of playset hardware from an online dealer: hand grips, the climbing wall hand holds, a big boy swing, a steering wheel and periscope. The play set is very popular even in its unfinished state. Neighbor boys up the street enjoy it as much as our trio.
FYI, Libby has not yet climbed up onto the deck. She's such a girl!
