A good friend of mine Nan Ripley asked about what we were doing with our backyard.  We were fortunate enough to get a very large water easement behind our house.  We lost a lot of the pine trees after an ice storm.  (We also lost power for 6 1/2 days... That was not fun!)  After clearing off the pines, it was decided that the best use of the space was a playground...  After much ado, the boys finally got their playground.  As you can see from the picture, they are making great use of it!
