First picture from the tail end of last weekend. Posts are up, beams and joists are hung
The ‘house’, looking back at it from the pond brush
Pictures from this weekend begin here; Kevin helping me screw in the deck boards
Mr. Hoffman, drawn to the siren call of the hammer, thinks it might be amusing to take a sledge to the support

I finally let Matthew and Christopher climb up to check it out late today. You can see the ladder I’m building in the foreground; I need to attach it to the deck.
Still have to put up the railing, still need to finish the ladder, still need to install the rope ladder that is on order, and a bunch of little fixes before the kids can have at it. Added some braces to the posts to stop some of the ‘wobble’.
Still need to figure out what to do on the ‘deck’. Going to put up some kind of walls with roof; not sure what it’s going to look like in the end.
