Jungle Camp Building Day 1

What a beautiful we have had. The sun is out and in the bush it's cool with a nice breeze. We had a great start. Our day started with laundry at 8:00 a.m. and then we headed into the bush!



We started out digging holes and setting our poles! Notice who's working and who is in the background with his arms folded...hee hee hee!
Bill taught Garrett and Jake how to use a water level...pretty cool! Bill has brought his carpentry skills out here and has measured twice and tried his best to make the house straight. WHich is extremely hard with all these used trees.


The poles are in place and we're about ready for our roof! Which is a big piece of clear plastic. Notice how we attached the logs together...yes it is Duck Tape! Gotta Love It! I'm home making dinner for now after we eat we'll head back up and get that plastic on. It is coming together much faster than I thought and it's fun. I must go but be sure to check back tomorrow to see how it's coming!


Oh, here is Jake burning leaves, they make nice little smoke piles which keeps the bugs away.
