A wonderful new addition to the yard is our new - used - hand me down swing set. This massive playground assembly was built by my brother Mark about 10 years ago for Sequoia's cousins Christopher and Will. It appears that the boys have finally outgrown it, so Sequoia lucked out in a big way.
Again the pictures are not great, but I think you get the picture about how much she loves her swing set.
She absolutely loves play grounds in general and is incredibly fortunate that in our little neighborhood she has no fewer than 4 different play sets to choose from.
She considers all playgrounds her playgrounds ... but this one actually really is all hers.
Everyone in my family has tons of vivid memories of Chris and Will playing on this set at their two houses prior to it being relocated across the Bay to our house.
It was extremely nice and generous of them to agree to allow Sequoia to take ownership of something that had played such a big part of their childhoods.
I think she will be a great steward of this personal playground as she trains for the 2024 Olympics.

Grandmom says, "What FUN to see Sequoia playing with her new swing set... how I remember playing with Will and Christopher on this same set when it was THEIRS in their other homes. We DID have FUN and I know Sequoia is going to have just as much as they did over the years. She is one heck of a CUTIE showing how to use all the various parts of it, too. ENJOY it Sequoia, you are one lucky little girl! love you! Grandmom
