Lincoln Logs
When I was a kid, my grandparents had a set of Lincoln Logs at their house, and I used to love building houses on the family room floor. Now that I have kids of my own, you can bet I have some log cabin building materials in my own house. In fact, we have two big barrels of 'em, the better to build luxurious mansons like this:
Anna and I often head down to the basement playroom on Saturday mornings because we're usually the first ones awake in the house. Building houses with Lincoln Logs has become something of a weekend morning tradition for us. Last weekend, Maria joined us too:
We like to build unusual houses - tree forts suspended between the two barrels, funky cantilevered structures that would make Frank Lloyd Wright proud. And we always have a corral for the horses, because the two barrels' worth of Lincoln Logs yielded something like twelve horses and six cowboys.
