Trees, Pizza, Shopping, etc...
Well yesterday, was another exciting and fun filled day. Jared, Adrienne, and I decided that we would go over to the park that Jared found by Wildcat Creek a few days ago. Now the outing started out unfortunately, due to the fact that my brakes weren't working very well, and every time i tried to stop my brakes squeeled, and it was really annoying! A couple of wrong turns, and a police officer later, we met adrienne at Culver's, the real adventure was about to begin......
We found the park without much trouble, we parked and decided that we would walk over to the creek, to see if we could find where a certain someone had previously fallen in. We eventually found then we decided to try to get out on an island in the middle of the creek.
cided to try to get out an island in the middle of the creek.
This was somewhat of a difficult task because we couldnt really find any way onto the island without getting soaked. So, we decided to try to make a dam. Jared and I tried thowing random sticks in the creek but to bolster up the dam but they failed to get caught and just moved on down stream. We thought that we would never be able to complete the dam.
So we decided to take a different approach. We found this huge tree, that had fallen and thats base was partially stuck in the mud. We decided that we would break this mighty tree free from the crushing confines of the mud, and use it to strengthen and anchor our dam. After enduring many crushing and discouraging words from Adrienne, Jared and I set to work. We had to use all the resources that we possessed in order to succed due to the massive weight and length of the tree. To make a long story short, we succeded despite many cuts and bruises and bitter words from the onlookers.
After that we went to Pizza Hut, where we saw Kelsy. The pizza was pretty good. By the way, hot sauce, and lemon sugar water dont mix. Finally, we stopped at Wal-mart where we walked looking at random stuff, and then we went into the make-up section where jared and adrienne tried mimicking the models facial expressions and i took pictures. If you would care to examine the pictures for yourself, i would love to show you. After that exciting experience we all decided that it was time to head for home.
Oh By the way,
You can have alot of fun with a group of at least 3 people by getting the same number of straws as people and a plate full of jello. What you do is you suck little pieces of jello up through the straw, and then, shoot/ blow the jello at someone. It's a lot of fun and i would highly recomend it as a great source of entertainment.

i dont think this post does us justice. it was more than picking up a tree and throwing it in the water, the massive trunk was mixed in with a bunch of other sticks and logs that had collected from some flood previous. thus, we had minimal spaces to step without falling through as we both found out quickly. not to mention that the tree musta been at least a foot and a half in the mud, and a good 5th of it was waterlogged. but we beat the odds and together, triumphed.
you are a crazy person
you're absolutely right jared, it takes more than the simple words which i can muster, to properly relate the details of the obstacle we had to overcome using all the strength, itelligence, stamina, and resillience that we could rally, but in the end, we triumphed despite numerous setbacks and complications
amen.
a certain person fell in...hmph!
I resent that--you weren't even there!
