Playground Set Project

Daddy and mommy picked out a playground set for us. Our backyard is inclined. Daddy has put up a retaining wall prior to playground installation.

Phase 1 - Clear out the area for the playground.

Phase 2 - Several bricks are laid out.



Phase 3 - Now we're coming along.


Phase 4 - - A majority of the wall has been completed. Bad news is that the far corner needs to be leveled by 4-5 ft. That is alot of bricks!


Phase 5 - Daddy stayed home to work on the project.
Phase 6 - I've completed the wall 98%. I order a tad too much fill dirt, but it's okay.

My man Mike from work helps me install the playground set. He is perhaps one of the handiest people I know. It takes us 10 hours to install the set together. ~500-600 bricks for the retaining wall, and 32 tons of fill dirt. The price of the retaining wall is 3x as much as the playground set!
