Cargo Net372 viewsAt the end of the swing beam is a cantilevered section that we were originally going to leave out because we didn't think we had the space. We ended up having space and left it in. Due to the proximity of the tree, we couldn't put in a disc or tire swing like the plans called for. At first we were going to just leave it 'blank' and reserve it for a future 2-person glider swing once more kids come along. But instead, we decided to make our own "cargo net" climber and attach it there in the meantime.

Aug 2011 update: This "temporary" cargo net became somewhat permanent. I had intended this to last 2 or 3 years and then put in the double-glider as mentioned above. But the kids really like this cargo net. Today it officially wore out, and rather than putting in a glider, I actually rebuilt it with new rope. It's hard to say if we'll ever get the glider at this point :)

All doors open371 viewsThe garage door rolls up just like a real door. The Power Wheels jeep fits inside with plenty of play-room, and he can always back it out for more space, just like daddy does with the real garage!

The Rich get Richer...370 viewsChurchill Downs was being remodeled when we were there. Of course, they had to tear out a 100-year old clubhouse so they could build a more 'posh' one for rich corporate suites. At least the twin spires remain!

Entertainment Room370 viewsElvis wanted a room where he could watch all three networks at once. I wonder what he'd do today -- have a room with 200 TV's so he could watch all the cable networks at once too?

Back side370 viewsView from the back, showing the rock wall and swings (which we had clamped in the picture as they were a little compressed from the box. Under the tower we will be adding a sandbox and small "ball tent" area.
