I remember watching the movie "Witness" when I was a kid and being struck by the scene where literally 30-40 people come over to help build a neighbor's barn in a matter of a day. Community in action. Well, out here in the 'burbs my HOA will not allow barns but they do allow playsets for kids.
So today was our modern day Amish Barn Building of sorts with a few of the guys coming over to lend their handyman know-how (God knows I have none) to Nolan's long delayed birthday gift. It's amazing to watch community in action (with a little beer and pizza as extra incentive). Thanks to those who helped. Remember...you too can have the 'Amish-way' visit your place...just call some friends.
