So, we've decvided what these next few months big project will be. My daughters used to be in STLP (they made the morning "news" for the school) - and they all desperately want to be youtbuers. So, as part of their stem requirement..I'll be opening up a youtube channel for them...and they're going to make a series of videos about how to make cedar strip canoes.
Lots of measuring, lots of fun facts about different species of wood and the chemical reactions involved in glassing. Lots of math. We'll be building four boats...and come march, we'll take them out onto the waterways for a little lesson in freshwater biology.
Watch this space, lol!

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
