Supplies necessary for building a fort: chairs, couch cushions and blankets.
Kayden, 9, and Kinley, 7, Aldridge ticked off the items in easy order, clearly masters of living room fort construction.
But the fort, just steps away from the playground area at Lincoln Park, was pretty nice too, and it provided a fun bit of shade on a hot Thursday while the two children waited with their mom and younger siblings for the nearby swimming pool to open.
The fortâs beams look like colored pencils, banners with Generation Wild logos and colorful ribbons stream down the sides. âWoohoo!â the four kids yelled as they ran through the ribbons in their swimsuits.
