See this trellis?
Look at picture #6 (the last in that first section of pictures)

What the HE77 is that green thing tied to at the bottom??!!

(and isn't the rest of this picture/story amazing?)

I suspect the green wires are tied to ground stakes. We put up a fort for my son, and it had a climbing rope that came with a stake you screw down into the ground and it has a loop at the top you tied the rope onto.

I think the rope is tied to a tie down stake as well. That is a really pretty structure. I had to laugh, seeing all those water melon hanging down in the last picture! I wouldn't want to be the person walking through there if one of them decided to let go, LOL!
