I've always loved treehouses.

Sort've a part of us that doesn't grow up in some cases.

But this guy has quite an inner child

Anyone live near crossville Tn ?   This is the ministers treehouse

That IS in fact a treehouse standing 97 feet tall.

Anyway,  Close to where I live there's a small 1/2 acre lot that is currently disputed land.  I've put a bid in with the town,  doubt if it'll be accepted but how knows.  I'm getting ready to retire,  and I'd like a fun project...  See these trees ?

Well,  Not to brag but...  I, too.... Have been known to have some time on my hands !

I think if I channel one weeks worth of time spent in here, and a few hundred dollars on toothpicks,  I could build the whole NYC Skyline  LOL

Isn't there a Disney Tree village that replicates that Milo ?  I saw pictures of it I think.

That looks like a blast.  I wonder if the base is weighted so kids can safely climb to the third deck  (200 lb kids that is)

Wow......

Climbed lots of trees as a kid, and had some hidey holes up in the old oak trees where we hauled up boards and built platforms on flat areas in between branches.... but never had anything like those.

I wonder though... if they actually allow any KIDS to go in them to play?  :no:
