I finally finished up the crenellations on Saturday. I had maybe 2/3 or 3/4 of the boxes built, but none were attached. Five plus pound wooden blocks sitting on a rail eleven feet over the ground, above where small children are playing. Just waiting for a stiff wind. What a recipe for disaster. (Luckily fate hasn’t been cooking…)
I still need to put in the three screens in the back of the sandbox, put up the "drawbridge" ramp into the sandbox, build a door at the entrance of the sandbox, and rip some boards to fit in the gaps.
After all of that is done, Kel is gonna paint it "rock" gray, and we’ll paint outlines of rocks to give it the appearance of a real castle.
The only time Keira will play in it is when other kids visit. Dyson will go out if Kel or I go with him. Kel sometimes goes out and plays in the sandbox after work. (I think the stress of annual budget time is getting to her…)
