The beach fort

Bye! Bye! Post. Check out the grass thatching happening here! Those boys really worked hard on this thing! It made for a very fun place to play in the sand away from the waves.
Grandpa with the axe chopping down the view blocking post. We all had a turn whacking at it!

Full view of fort before we removed the tall post that was interupting the view from the beach house. The pit in front was originaly about 6 feet deep!!! When asked why the young man simply replied, "I like to dig." I am not sure who filled it back in, but the next morning it was only half as deep. Then my kids got it filled in quite a bit more with all their running around the sides. We put the tall post across the pit for a bridge and, Violet (2) could climb on it from inside.


Inside seating.



Inside the boys drug or carried logs for sitting.

Now that's some serious fort building. I am beyond impressed. When can we move in?
