All nice add-ons for her. Indicates that she knows what she's doing!

I'm anxious to see what this "net maze" that she mentioned will actually end up looking like. Obviously, it won't be anything like the nets we all experienced growing up in Tom Sawyers Landing, but maybe it will be lower to the ground and on a much smaller scale?

I know I'm being impatient and we just had some updated pictures on the HDH, but anything new in the last couple of days? I didn't know if somebody had some updated pictures of the new food booth and updating on the HH....
Thanks to those of you who have been so great about giving the updates you get when you get them...

I've got ten new pictures taken today. I'll try to get over there about once a week, but sometimes I just get too busy with my own work. Anyway, once again, they show good progress.

This is a new structure that I hadn't seen before. Taken from the Swinging Bridge, you see the back of Becca's so that gives an idea of where it is.

These next two are of the little children's ampitheater where I'm told there will be a storyteller. I wonder if it will be Judy? They will access it by walking under the Swinging Bridge.

Still from the Swinging Bridge, the structure on the right is where the netted climbing alleys will be.

Another view of that same structure but from the Woodcarvers side.

Here we see how they're making use of the prefabricated tree trunks that laid in the M&C lot for so long.

From the corner of Becca's house. The painters have been busy.

They are working on the Carousel, and coming right along. You can see the Depot in the background. I was on a little crew that put the Carousel together when SDC first acquired it. We put it in...of all places...the Carousel Barn, and all we had to work with, as far as figuring out how it went together, were a half dozen or so Polaroid pictures...no blueprint. It was a challenge but we got 'er done.

A view from the street in front of it.

And one from the south end of the Depot.
