Here is the treehouse that Lloyd is building in one of our wooded areas...it is a work in progress as the walls aren't up yet. When it is finished it will have four walls, a roof, a door, three windows (as seen). A ladder (the one seen is temporary). It will have a rope swing hanging from it. It will be completely shingled in cedar shingles (only because we have so many left over from when our roof was done) and we plan to make a clearing in the middle of the wooded area outside of the treehouse for the kids to play - but up high, level with the treehouse it will remain all 'treed'. It's actually lovely being up there amongst the trees! Lloyd was trying to explain how some of the fixing bits aren't attached yet although it is attached to the trees already and is safe but it will have extra V shaped bits or something.....but it's all beyond me. It's very cool that in Summer when the leaves are out you can't see it from the house so the kids can be all hidden away from us and because it will be weather-tight they will be able to sleep in it right through until the Fall....
Lloyd is just a little sad that the weather has been so bad the last day or two that he hasn't been able to get out there much and do anything - he can do some things in the work shop but he is excited about this project and wants to be out there working on it!
