Glad to have that mystery solved...

I think my sons built it, all four of them working together, one summer some time back.  Mark, at ten years, was the ring-leader, the giver of instructions, the assigner of tasks.  Daniel honed the ideas making them doable by his analytical thinking.  Stephen was the master builder.  His strong and patient fingers could fashion the parts and his strong little back never tired of bending and lifting.  David, watched, and waited, often still sucking his thumb, but he wanted to be counted in, a vital member of the alliance.    They made sure they had a clubhouse in every state--a cave, a cleft in a rock, a sand pit at the beach, a burned out stump of a redwood tree, an igloo in the winter snow.  A childish obsession of four little boys and their creative minds.  What fun I had knowing what they were doing.
