40/52

 a portrait of my children, once a week, every week in 2013 via Che and Fidel

They : are both very happy to be home. That old tyre swing is sure getting a workout - they go higher than this but I have to look away!

    1. Yes, the ropes in fact go close to horizontal at the highest peak. All good as long as everyone holds on, we have thrill seekers in this house. mel x

  5. What a great picture!
    I was only thinking the other day of the things I did when I was a kid that I wouldn't dare do now. We had a swing that was just a big knot on the end of a rope and it was high off the ground. The only way you could get on to it was to climb up a sawn off tree (that was taller than me) and stand on the top, which was not a very big area (even for kid's feet) and once you were up, there was nothing to hold on to - it was scary! Someone else had to throw the swing to you and you made a dive for it - not always connecting!

  7. Our swing looks identical to yours, no accidents here under the same reckless abandon thankfully.

  8. How do they get up that high???!!! Looks like great fun! Hope you leg is ok, happy painting :) When you finish your place, can you just pop over here and do our 2nd floor for us? We moved in over 2 years ago and still haven't finished...
