I was sitting and waiting to go out and trick or treat with my friends in my neighborhood, when all of the sudden I got an idea. "I should build something to drop pumpkins with", I thought. So I did, and here are the results. Hopefully soon I will be able to try my idea of loading the pumpkin with a waterbottle pressurized with acedic acid and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda and vinegar).
This is the pumpkin as it smashes into the ground.
This is the pumpkin seconds before impact.

My Trebuchet
This video is of a wooden trebuchet that I built this past week. It shoots pretty far and I am happy with the way it turned out. I would like to thank the Kalb family for donating most of the lumber used on this project.

Hidden Bluff
At one of the camping places that I have been to, I found a rock face that nobody knows about, that goes up to about 60 feet, I call it Hidden Bluff. It is sort of hard to tell but the top picture on my blog was taken at the top of one of the coolest cliff faces in the whole area. You can see the edge in the bottom left corner. Any ways, I got a chance to rappel from the highest possible place, and had a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I was unable to climb because of the moss covering the rock.
This is the whole rock face.

This Place is Amazing
This is Morgan climbing out of the large entrance.
Here is Conner Climbing out of the small entrance.
Hello there...
Morgan an JC on the other side of the lake.
Large entrance.
These are pictures of me, Conner, Morgan, and Julia Clare (JC), my neighbors
exploring the cave area. It is pretty much just a long tunnel that goes on for about 30 meters. At points, it is about 50 feet under ground with a ceiling height of about 3 to 3.5 feet
