That Pesky Picnic Table

When we were first looking at the lot we now live on, it was dotted with these funky seats made from tree trunks, a heavy steel table, large landscaping rocks, and a picnic table.  Chris undertook the project of replacing some of the boards (or maybe all of the boards) and then had the girls stain the table to be used down at the beach.

Fast forward two years and we had moved the picnic table while on vacation so that the landscapers could work on our beach area.  Unfortunately, we returned home to find that a careless worker had backed over or into our picnic table rendering it unusable.  Once again, Chris undertook the project to rebuild the picnic table into a usable piece of furniture again.  He tried to reuse as many of the pieces of wood as possible.  He has invested a lot of $$ and time into this table.
