WOULD YOU LIKE TO SWING ON A STAR? CARRY MOONBEAMS HOME IN A JAR?

It doesn't take much to make me happy, or so I thought. I always wanted a rope swing to end all rope swings. Seemed like a fairly tame wish. Well, in the end it took a village to complete this magnificent rope swing and mostly due to the efforts of Frank and Steve--two neighbors of mine. It was quite a feat as you will see from the photos. Yes, it is the best rope swing on the river. And yes Virginia, this old lady has swung on it many times.


The mighty rope

Frank starts the 'normal' way


Call in the Reserves,
got to get higher!

Frank finally gets it looped!

Steve, Laurie and Frank finish
the launch pad. Maya helped.
