BAGS FLY AT NOON posted:Wondering as to the progress of the catapult Oh poo poo! Yeah, so we test fired it and were able to throw a shuttlecock about 20'. Our basket (small planter duct taped to the end of the rod) is not working great but we are def looking at other options. I'll get a little vid put together tonight so youse guys can get a look. Thinking some ammo with a bit more heft will help a lot.

NM is not a great environment for launching model rockets these dry-rear end days, though

Too busy mulching to post but catapult sounds sweet, creating weapons is a time-tested child-parent bonding activity

I used to hate the hostas that line one side of our driveway (previous owner had planted them who knows how long ago) but then I started actually weeding them and making it look nice and now I love them.
