M was on Spring Break last week while the kids don't have it until Easter weekend. Mostly he stayed at the office anyway catching up on all the stuff he can't get to when the students are on campus, but he did come home early enough to play a little.
Some of the teenage boys that he leads at church are into slacklining. (It's kind of like tightrope walking on a strap of webbing) He wants to get impressive in the sport,and instead of investing in all the expensive gear, he just rigged his tow strap from his truck between a couple of our trees. At first he put it 2 or 3 feet in the air, but the rest of us were all chicken-butts and wouldn't try it until he lowered it...A LOT.
low is definitely better.
J even added hula hoop training wheels
People do AMAZING tricks on slacklines...AJ for example ;)
Also M and some friends are tinkering around with some old bicycles, modifying them, and putting motors on them. He has just started on this one. It’s good to see him having fun.
