Turbo Tube Slide
The Tube Slide is the highlight of this playground. As a relatively expensive option, we were going to leave it off, hoping to add it "someday" but then decided that this, unlike several of the other parts of the playground, was something William could use NOW and we'd get more value out of it just by adding it from the start. It assembled together with something like a million bolts, nuts, and washers. Thank goodness for air ratchets... In this picture, we hadn't yet finished the bottom of the slide so it's just resting on boards.
IMG_1976.JPG Checking things outWilliam sits at the top of the newly-placed ladder. As we were lifting the ladder into position, and before we attached it, William wasted no time in scampering halfway up the ladder as we held it before we could stop him and get him to wait! IMG_1978.JPG Almost completeWell, this is the part of the project we sort of forgot to take pictures since we were on a roll. At the time the next few pictures were taken, we were very close to complete. Here you can see an overview of the entire playground.

After this picture was taken we added a knotted rope to aid in the climb. William will have to grow into this one a bit.

Under the tower we will be adding a sandbox and small "ball tent" area.
