Cute :thumbsup: but I would keep an eye on her, I would hate to see it cave in on her

Last pic is my boy standing in the hole about 36" deep now when she make it to a point it's over her head

we will resort to the book at hand it's old info but should be good enough to keep her out of trouble

Too bad you don't live closer. I've got some shrubbery that needs planted. Ogy

Good for her, doing something besides the computer. When I was a kid there was at least 3 underground forts in fields and woods around our house. You rarely see kids doing things like that now.

That looks like great fun. I did that when I was a kid. But as others have mentioned, some forethought and supervision can help avoid a tragedy. Here's a Labor Day story with a sad ending from my area.

Keeping herself busy, that's good. I wonder who is going to have to fill it back in when she's done..........:doah:
