A New Swing Set

Our neighbors, Clinton and Cassandra just bought 11+ acres up the road (they rented the place behind us for a few months) that has a rustic, natural swing on it. I started thinking...wouldn't that be great to have one of those for Banyan and India to swing together.
I noticed a Full Moon was coming up and asked if they'd like to get together to eat and make a swing set for the girls. Full Moons are wonderful when much of your life exits outside a building. The world is lit up and it magical to hang out and enjoy the glow of the moon.
They are all about community and helping one another. They are care taking a guava orchard right behind us and there is so much guava wood, a swing set would be no problem.
Cassandra got involved and the project evolved into a two swing set, so both girls can swing at the same time.
David came over for his rabbit stew (yes, I did say rabbit) and he helped out as well.
The girls couldn't wait, they had to start playing before it was even done.
The girls each got a custom swing, perfect for their height.

They swung all night, into dinner.

I LOVE the rustic, natural look.
