This morning I wrote a really cheesy paper on childhood obesity and in the process i inspired myself to go out and do stuff. So now my next pet project that'll probably go nowhere is right in front of me. Well it all started yesterday when me and my sister being bored decided to take a walk across the lake because the level was so low that you could almost cross the entire lake. And it was odd I felt like a little kid again exploring, then today i decided after writing the paper to instead of doing my usual play video games and listen to the radio go out for a walk( i also stopped and got my fishing license as well in case i feel the inclination to fish). I took my camera with me too just to take some pictures of my hike and of the lake while its so low. I got some pretty nice shots of wild ducks and of the low lake. Then when I got back i sat down and actually widdled my walking stick down to a few small sticks ( I got pissed because I liked that stick to it was good for walking but it broke while i was widdling it) So after gathering the shavings and put them near my fireplace, i got an idea to practice my widdling. AND now ladies and gentlmen i come to my new project...I going to attempt to make a whole slew of things made entirely of lashing and wood. All i have to do is practice my lashing so its very tight. such things include: flagpole, kitchen rack, Tower, bridge, monkeys bridge( look that one up), and plenty more. Scoff at the boyscouts if you want I'd like to see you make a tower out of wood and rope fuckers!!!
