Building a treehouse for your kids – How do I get to be a dad like this?

Anyone who has ever been to Disneyland and climbed the Swiss Family Robinson treehouse (now recast as Tarzan’s home), imagines how cool it would be to have a real treehouse sanctuary. For kids, you can probably increase that by a factor of 2 to 3. I don’t know why treehouses have that special allure. Is it just because it’s having a place of your own, being taller than your surroundings, getting away from home and chores. Whatever it is, I was envious of this guy’s kids, and in awe of how much work he put into creating this treehouse for them, at one point even planning on running water to add to the full code-friendly electric. He says he “doesn’t have any idea how much it all cost” and doesn’t want to know. His wife looks a little suspicious of how far he would have carried this if she hadn’t stepped in.

Wow! That is one awesome tree house! I am so jealous of those kids - I would still enjoy a tree house to this day. If I were the parents, I would use that house to read in or play crafts with the kids or something. I think the appeal to tree houses has to do with being in nature and it feeling like it's a place of your own. I just can't believe how amazing this one is.
