I have made the decision to redo my small Southern California backyard. I am going to take out all the grass and create some paths and additional garden beds. I was thinking about having an arbor in the middle of the garden, with a path leading up to it, as a focal point. However, the more I think about it, the more I think I would like a swing. I am thinking of using 4x4's as supports. I want to use real rope and have a wooden seat. I am really into the rustic look, so I want it to look like it's been there a while. I can't find any information on "free-standing" swings. Has anybody ever done this or have any suggestions??? Thanks!
