I thought this was funny!

Thanks Holly for sending this to me. Don't worry Alex, I haven't forgotten!!

 

The Death of the Birthday Party (for lack of a better title...)

Ok, so for my birthday, my mom and dad decided that they wanted to get me some a TON of throwing knives. Now all I need to do is name them. Any suggestions?

Top left and bottom right are the SOG Fixed Blade Tactical Throwing knives. I got six of these puppies! they'll leave a mark... if I hit you!

Top right is the Cold Steel High Performance True Flight Throwing Knife! I Love this knife! works good at a regular fixed blade too.

Bottom left is the Perfect Point Phantom three knife set and they are far from a perfect point. I actually got these a couple of months ago, not for my birthday. They don't fly as nice as I had hoped they would, but they still look cool!

Lastly, the center is the Hibben Knives GH2013 Generation 2 Pro Throwing Axe. I would not want to meet the working end of this baby! It's nasty! You drop it on your foot only once because you probably won't have a foot to drop it on a second time.  

Hey Folks, that's right, little ol' me is officially 16 as of 8:25 this morning! Now, how I understand it, to find what your IQ is, you divide your age by four, which means I have an IQ of four. Yippy!
 

Canoeing

Had a great time canoeing with David and Ryan yesterday. Went to our local lake and did 5 miles.
We flipped the canoe and recovered it without leaving the water and then got out on a rock in the middle of the lake to get some pictures. I will post them when I get them. We also had a lot of fog so we could hardly see where we were going. That was probably the best part.

Anyways, we had a great time. Sorry you had to miss it, Paul!

Biking

Oops! I haven't been good about updating my biking blog log. Since the last post, I have biked 43.28 miles putting me at a total of 80.58 miles, a far cry from the 1,500 I intended to do, but it's still better than nothing!

Eagle Scouts

Last Wednesday one of our scouts, Jeremy, went for his Eagle Board of Review. We had another scout, David, also go to get his project approved. Thankfully, both passed. Jeremy became Troop777's ninth Eagle Scout. His project was building a trail in his neighborhood.

David's project is to fill backpacks with supplies and send them to a Christian orphanage in Zambia.

Thanks to Ryan for the pictures.

The three board members that did the BoR, Jeremy and my dad.
