Something Positive...

Well I don't want to seem like a pessimist and I realize that if I'm not careful, this can be a very negative blog.  So, I built a pretty gnarly miniature catapult today.  It was a competition in my engineering class and it is introducing the next major project where we will build a counterweight catapult that hopefully will launch a watermelon a great distance.  We will see.

I am also preparing for a backpacking trip my wife and I are going on during Memorial day weekend.  We will be going with a few friends that have never backpacked before, so I'll get to show off my amazing skills. My wife and I also have a 5-day backpacking trip in Yosemite that I am starting to get excited about.  This will be my wife's first major backpacking trip where real mileage will be covered.  I am hoping to cover at least 30 miles that trip and explore the amazing Yosemite. Maybe by then I will have more followers and can have someone to share the details and photos with.  No matter what, they'll still be on here, so here's to being positive and looking forward.
