^ Nice work with the tool rack. How is the rebar held into the 2x6? Just sitting loose in a hole, or fastened in somehow?

walked like an Egyptian.*

Made eyes at Brandy across the fence and had a sammy or two.

Good fun, (and thank you!)

That's one way. I put motion sensors so things turn on when the kids walk by (30 sec - 2 min shut off depending) so now there's no switches for the kids to leave on.
