This is the new playset
A few of the power lines after the storm got them.
The old playset after the first part of the storm got it. It was worse after the night was over, but I accidentally deleted those pics.
We have had some crazy weather and bad storms this summer. The worst for us was when we had our playset picked up and threw on the ground. We also had some barn and shed damage, but who uses those anyways. We were more entertained by the playset which was pretty much trashed after the wind was through with it and later on that night when it got it some more.
The crazy part is that the thing was very sturdy and weighed a ton. I can't believe it went over. It took a tractor and a truck to haul it to our house in two pieces and in just a few seconds it was picked up and threw against the tree.
The storm was really bad in our neck of the woods and took out the whole row of electric poles down our road. snapped some of them in two. We had to rebuild the whole playset and finally got it done. It worked out good, because now they have green slides and stuff that match our shudders on the house so I decided to get that instead of yellow like we had. Josh and Caleb rebuilt the playset a lot like the old one with just a few changes. The kids love it now more than ever and play on it all the time so all is good now.
