To build or not to build...

Directions for how to build a playground!
Only 111 steps and 5 boxes of materials.
Items needed: 2 moderately skilled adults and 24 hours - piece of cake...I took a 9 week long shop class once...in 7th grade!
So okay...it has taken a little more than 24 hours. But I really don't think those directions were meant for people in Florida. Just about the time you get all your tools set up, all your hardware located, all the boards arranged, the flood waters of the summertime storms roll in. Thankfully, the lack of progress has not hindered the kids in playing everything from school to spiderman on the portion that is built! Who knows...maybe by the end of summer we will have the slide attached.
Progress to date: Step 90 completed! Only 21 more steps to go...oh wait then I have to stain it!
