Swung It's Last Swing...

Alas...

After some back and forth and with Emilie's okay, we decided it was time to sell the Creative Plaything swing set of ours.

Although, it took several attempts via Craig's List, beginning in the Fall of 2014, we finally found someone who was truly interested and someone who wasn't expecting it for free (the gall of some people).  He showed up with a buddy around 1:00 this past Sunday, dismantled the set, loaded it up and drove away by 4:30ish.

Truth be told it took much longer that I would have guessed.  I suspect the buyer was thinking the same thing too.

We purchased in 2004, which included installation.  It was a terrific swing set that got a lot of use by Emilie and many others over the years.  We have pictures of the set with Uncle Tommy, Barbara, my mom, my dad and many others.

It's going to another home where it will provide additional memories for another family.  We'll have our fond memories. On the other hand, I can tell you with the utmost certainty that the person who mows the lawn is VERY happy to no longer mow around that structure...
