spend it all

I spent nearly $250 on supplies for my latest project, I am building a small observation shell, or as some people will call it, a picnic fort. I was pretty discouraged by the price while stacking loads of wood at Lowes, started to doubt my abilities and really wasn't sure that I was heading in the right direction, but in all I decided that I know I won't be satisfied with anything less, and I am completely capable of making this thing happen....hopefully. Essentially I am building an observation deck in the middle of a forested swamp, I am using three main elements of the device to control your position within the swamp and redraw the elements around, in order to explain what the swamp is about.
