Juniata Boys Build Log Cabin For Fort

Juniata boys build log cabin for fort Weeks before March ushered in spring, Evan, 13, and Jordan, 12, both of Juniata, found themselves outside building makeshift forts in a wooded area near Jordan's great-grandmother's house. [...] fueled by ideas from watching people build things on the Discovery Channel, the boys wanted to make something larger near the beginning of March. After school or on weekends, the boys walked to the construction site. To make a railing up the hill on one side, the boys cut down a pair of young trees about waist high and nailed another length of tree. After putting up the walls to about chest high, they pieced a roof together using scrap wood gathered from around a house family members tore down two weeks ago. Since they aren't old enough to drive, the boys loaded the boards onto a handmade skid and dragged the load several blocks to reach the cabin. Evan's mother, Melissa, liked to see the boys spending time outside rather than playing video games in the house.
