Me, Mackenzie, and Todd
Saturday morning at 11am Todd Stafford and I started working on Mackenzie's new playset and it was over 90 degrees with high humidity. We decided to sink the tower posts into the ground about one foot so I got a good workout digging the holes.
We put the tower together and discoverd that the slide was going to be too high so we actually lifted the tower out of the holes and cut off the ends to lower it about a foot. That took a while. Funny thing is that Mackenzie came out after we had finished putting it back in the holes and she couldn't understand why we hadn't done anything!
By the end of the evening we had nearly finished the tower. Brian Wohlers stopped by and was definitely a "shot in the arm" for our moral and a great help as well! Thanks Brian!
Todd Stafford is incredible. He is a strategic thinker and really knows how to build stuff - gotta love them engineers! We work well together since I am an implementer/refiner.
The heat is the other story here. It really takes it out of you to be out there in 90+ degree heat with high humidity.
Although we didn't get nearly as far as we had hoped, we took our time and was certain that everything was level and cut square. It was a good day!
