Warren is happy to have a yard to play in. He is building a treehouse (actually it is a platform) at the end of the zipline so that we have a place to get off. 
He got the wood from a scrap pile from the builder that we were renting from the first 7 months that we lived here. Tuesday we spent a couple of hours as a family carrying all the wood down to the trees. TaraLyn has been helping him today to build it. 
It is kind of hard because we really don't have a ladder that is tall enough. As you can tell in the pictures TaraLyn is having to hold onto the ladder while Warren ties it to the platform. I had to leave because I was afraid someone was going to get hurt. I did make sure that they had a phone so that they could call 911 if they needed to. 
They were lifting the boards up with a ropes. 
Warren has another four trees located to build an actual treehouse in. It won't be up as high.

That's really neat! I would be scared, too, though.
Thank goodness for Scouting! I am sure he learned all of his safety from scouting!
It is SOOOO GOOOD to catch up on you with this blog. I love it!
So, this is where you get OFF the zipline, or ON? I'm remembering my little zip-trip, and I'd be afraid of running SMACK right into it. Of course, I'm sure Warren's thought of that and figured everything out. As long as he tests it first, I'll be back to try it out again someday!
