This is a little project that I've been working on.  I coverted my daughter's old swingset into a swing . Probably needs another coat of paint.

Bought this bench at an antique auction.  It's made out of cypress.  Gave it a coat of paint also.

There is a Carolina Bay behind the house on my property.  a carolina bay is a large circluar area that sits on a hill, but is a wet weather area.  There are cyprus trees growing in this thing.  It is full of water about 6 months and dry for 6 months.  Most folks call them wet weather ponds.  Here is a project that I have been working on for several years, (when I have time).  I'm trying to make a walk across the middle of the area.  I have maybe 600 yards completed. I like to walk out here in the early mornings or late in the evening.  Just so relaxing.

The walkway sits on solid red oak trusses that are driven two to three feet into the mud.

My neighbor  invited me over to pick some scuppernongs, so I guess I'll walk over and check them out.  He sells to the public.  It's cheaper to pick your own.  He always invites me over.  He's a good neighbor.

Hey Cap, You ever swung out into the river on a rope like that, or climbed up and dove into the river?

Hey Rick,  Sorry man, there's no round trip ticket.  Once you get used to those 300 plus days of shunshine, no snowy and icey roads  in the winter, fishing year round, large whitetail deer (I have them almost daily in the back yard), you're here to stay.

Buster,
Thanks for the ride, some enjoy the destination, some the journey, some like me both.  The road less traveled by and all that always appealed to me.  Life's full of ironies, I've always loved deeply my home town area but struck by wonderlust always love checking out whats around the next bend.  Can't get that Supertramp song out of my head.......love that song!

You bet Buster. Did the mud slide thing too.

Hey John, Great to hear. Bing items always bring good money and they are not all that rare. Great for you good for collectors of bing items.  Congrats.

What part of Georgia are you in?  Apparantely southern with all the Spanish Moss.  I was raised in Florida so that stuff makes me homesick everytime I see it, (made me itch one time too - red bugs!)  You also must be in the eastern section with all the Revolutionary & Shermans March to the Sea.  My 9 year old son loves the history from the era & we try to visit as many sites as we can.  Thanks for the sharing the photos, Beautiful!
