Two of like size, with a plank across them>>>
Why didn’t I think of that? For 25+ years, I have single-handedly been clearing the underbrush along the river bank, leaving just the trees. Every year I have several hugh piles of brush to burn in the spring when it is wet enough to have a bon fire. Must have 700-800 feet cleared now Got places for half a dozen “settees”. Hubby will be cursing you. That means 12 more big rocks to haul from the river and he hates for me to put “stuff” out that he has to mow around. I can’t wait. Just love to go down by the river, sit quietly and watch for birds and wildlife. One day, I watched a mother otter and her two babies while mama was teaching the babies to “hunt” turning over the rocks and chittering away at the young. Won’t those settees be nice, placed along the bank?

Yes, and since hubby is so willing to help, why not saw a tree in half length wise and use that for a plank?

I hope while you are down there watching God’s babies, you are taking a camera with you.

Your husband will not be the first to wish their wife did not listen to me and make more work for them.

LOL, can I help it if I keep getting ideas?

I once said that I would be happy if the law allowed me to have about 5 husbands, one to work and feed us and the others to get the place built up.....

Bet I could keep them busy for years, greenhouses, arbors, benches and the list is long.
