Day 4: it floats my boat

Day #4 of working at the path... my favorite part was floating a new boat I made.  I made it out of gloves box, pudding boxes, bamboo skewers and glue.  It has a string so I can get it back easily.  Her name is "Loyal" and she floated great.  My dad thought she was going to sink.

I also snipped some branches as did Abby. 

Mom went and resprayed all the poison ivy because it wasn't dying (and she's got quite a few spots of it - OUCH and ITCH!) and dad did a lot more clearing too.  Dad tried the plank bridge and almost fell in, only kids should use that I guess.

I've started riding my bike over there - can't wait to ride more around the trail.  Camille's mom said it looks like it's right out of the ET movie when I did that the other day! :) 

Mom has written the town's conservation department about the bridge building at the advice of someone from AVIS.  Hope to hear back soon.  Another good idea that was given to us is the boy scouts.  If anyone else has ideas or wants to help just let us know!
