Is this where we go when we have nowhere else to go?  :frown:

I've been wondering that myself.  I feel very lost.  My productivity in things that matter could spike a lot this year.

Great thread.  This is now the official Fort/Treehouse/Hideout/Clubhouse thread.

1) One of my favorite forts ever was discovered by sdbro and myself when we were roughly 6 and 8 years old.  It was out in the woods near our house.  It was an actual little house with a glass window, door on a hinge with a bolt to lock it.  It was about 15 feet by 5 feet.  The floor was dirt and when we were digging up the floor for no reason we discovered and old metal tool box with some old rusty tools, some books that were basically unreadable and moldy and some other crap.  The kid who had it before us was estimated to have lived in the 1600s and was friends with indians and crap and probably ran away from home to live on his own.  He had all sorts of pet animals that helped him hunt and did various jobs for him.

Sounds amazing.   :D

I would go out in the woods and pretend that I was an Indian camping out (vision quest).  But I never found a house with cool buried treasure.

2)  Fort 2 was a tree house of sorts.  sd, sdbro and littler sdbro found a pile of wooden fence posts of various lengths.  We took them up into a big wide tree and began to hammer them down in between the Vs of the widest branches wedging them in there tight.  Then, we put nails through them so they wouldn't fall when we sat on them.  Eventaully we had about 40 wooden fence posts making walls up the largest Vs of the branches.  We then began to construct the floor out of ply wood we found in our shed.  The floor was of poor quality so it was primarily for looks only.  We would sit quietly waiting for a deer, bear or outlaw to pass by so we could drop the rocks we had stockpiled up top onto their heads....none ever passed or were seen.

I am wearing an obnoxious purple shirt today.  It is of good fabric, and expresses a quality sheen.  Nobody is rough ridin' with me today, and I'm pretty sure it's because of my shirt.  I am also not speaking to or making eye contact with anybody.

My fort #1: A tree fort at my neighbors house.  Few wood planks and a rope to swing on.  Couldn't find any other ropes to use, so we used his parent's tow rope.  One day a friend went down the tow rope too fast and the hook ripped his sack.  Lesson for all the goEMAWers: do not use tow ropes for any future forts

My fort was generally inside in the family room. ETP and ETPbro would take all of the kitchen table chairs and form a circle. We would then take our bedsheets and form a ceiling with them. We'd play in it for about 5 minutes, then leave it to ETPmom to pick up.

we would usually grab all the sofa cushions. Use them as walls and use blankets over top. Usually would integrate a table or two as well.

Your story reminds me of the 3 Roloff bros from Little People, Big World. Those sons of bitches have some amazing adventures.
