The play structure is finally finished. Well, it still needs some paint, but it is all ready for Patrick to play on.

Patrick didn't have time to visit Edward today. In the morning Michael and David and Ted lifted the crow's nest up onto the play structure. Grandpa Ted made a trip to the hardware store for a few more bolts and did some finishing work. Michael hung up the swings and Patrick got to try it all out. Right away he climbed up into the crow's nest. He really liked being up there. He tried the slide and the climbing wall and checked everything out.

Then he played in the water. In the afternoon, grandma Susan put on her swimming suit and she and Patrick got all wet playing in the water. Grandma Susan and Patrick slid down the slide into the little pool. It was lots and lots of fun. Even in the camper Edward could hear them laughing and splashing.

In the afternoon it looked like it was going to rain, but it didn't. It just got hot and muggy. After supper Patrick and Rachel and Grandma Susan and Grandpa Ted went for a walk around the bock. Patrick rode his strider part of the way. Zeuss the dog went along too.

Patrick's other grandma and grandpa, Karen and Dave, will leave tomorrow to go back to their home. Patrick will still be able to play with Edward for a few more days before they head back towards their home.

It is a fun summer for everyone!
