So, my mom, Grammy, decided she wanted a swing set in her backyard for when the grand kids come over. She asked Bob, my dad, to build her a swing set with a few swings and maybe a slide. It didn't take it long for her "swing set" to go from having a few swings and maybe a slide to being the "8th Wonder of the World." Anyone who knows my dad knows he doesn't do anything small. He can build just about anything you can imagine, but small is not a word that is used very often to describe the things he builds! They now have the coolest play scape in their backyard, I am surprised my kids came home when I went to pick them up last week! People driving by have stopped and asked if they could look at this thing it is so cool! It has a kitchen on the bottom with a window and a counter so you can walk up and order.The inside of the kitchen is complete with a table and chairs and yes Grammy did stock it with dishes. Above the kitchen is a deck where you can take a break from the playing and enjoy the breeze.It has a rock wall on one side and a rope to climb on the other side. Both girls were more than willing to demonstrate for me! There are two swings and a seesaw swing that hang from the bridge. At the end of a bridge is a steering wheel.The slide will shoot you into next week! Coming off of the side of the swings is a hanging bar and a baby swing. Story and Cadence really enjoyed these.This thing looks more like a playground instead of a backyard play scape. The grand kids are going to enjoy it for years to come! Bob, you rock for building this! Grammy, you rock for letting him!
