Making+Connections

One day I made a hut with my friend Monique. At first it wasn't much of a hut, it just consisted of a rope tied between two tree's. At that time we thought it was pretty cool because we could swing between the two tree's, we thought it was especially cool because we were the only two that could actually swing properly using the rope. Another reason that we thought it was spectacularly cool was becuase it was a secret no one else knew about it, it was our special cay.

Later on we added some different things. We found what ever we could to make it the ultimate hut. Although we thought the rope between the tree's was pretty cool we thought it was a bit unsafe as we could easily fall into the bush below. We decided to lay a plank between the two trees and use the rope as a rail. To make the plank special in some sort of way we thought we should sign it and get everyone that we let in sign it so that we could see how many people were allowed in and how many knew about our secret.

Our hut improved greatly since that day. We have had many kids come through to look and play in our hut. We also eventually put extensions on it, meaning we added a couple more things, a couple more planks and a couple more ropes. Unfortunately, we rarely go into our special cay anymore, but it was awesome back then. Now its still there but ti us its just an special distant memory.
