Even though I was very young when I went to Disneyland the first time I still remember being taken by a certain scene on one of the rides. Pirates of the Carribean starts out as though you are rowing out to the ship from the shores of the Louisiana swamps past a cabin whose porch is perched over the water with a light on in the window, and a firefly hovering over the water. It was an ambiance I fell in love with immediately, and I always enjoyed that part of the ride so much every time I have been since.
Tonight, I worked on the space under our willow tree which has finally grown enough to have a decent sized room in it. I have a couple of benches, a table and chairs, and a lantern hanging in it. One of the benches is a workbench I made last year. I have not put dogholes in it yet, and I may still, though I do have another workbench that can go there, too. So the bench may just stay a bench. I will put it on a couple of concrete slabs, and oil it down.
I am thinking I can put a couple of hammocks out the west side of the tree if I put a couple of posts into the ground to hold the second ends of them. There is a lot of possibilities for the space still, and I think it can host a fair number of our family at once.
