In order for all of the female readers out there to better understand the life from a man\u2019s perspective I am going to be a guest writer on the blog. I have made a pact with Kylie that if I write once a week she will try to \u201clearn\u201d how to fish and give it a try. Feels like a win\/win for both of us.<\/p>\n

So out of this pact I have created Man Life. A look into my life as a man. The name came to me last week as a vision when I was mowing in glorious Kansas sun. The vision had corporate sponsors and a cult following and then eventually having Kylie become the guest writer. The vision may have been something like a mirage since I was dying for water or freshly squeezed lemonade that day (which Kylie never brings).<\/p>\n

So this takes us to one of my last projects. Building my daughter, Lilah, a playground set for her birthday<\/a>. Sounds pretty easy, right? I could have done the easy thing and purchased a kit and built it in a day, but in the theme of doing things the tough way, I decided to build one from scratch. I felt like I had looked at enough of them to know what to do.<\/p>\n

Just deciding where to place the playground took me 3 hours and 4 beers. About 3 weeks later and lots more beer, the playground was finished for Lilah\u2019s birthday party. It did require some finishing help from my bro-in-law, father-in-law and dad. The playground is equipped with 3 swings, double-swing, rocket-fast slide, and a military-style rock climbing wall. I almost forgot to include the lookout tower that sounded real easy in my head, but was a pain to build. It seemed like every time I went to work on the playground it started raining 10 minutes into getting all of my tools out. All and all it went pretty well. If I had to do it over again I might have just bought a kit, but what fun would that be.<\/p>\n

The fruit of my labor:<\/p>\n

Stay tuned next week to the Man Life view of \u201cGardening\u201d or as I like to call it Landscaping.<\/p>\n
