Eagle Project Work Day 2

This past Saturday, I had my next Eagle Project Work Day. We were able to put in a water bar and replace one as well. it was a lot of work, but is was fun and we got a lot done.

Nick digging the trench for the log.

My dad cut down a tree for the log water bar.

We had to cut off the branches and take off the bark. That is what Ben and I are doing here.

If you do it right, you can get the bark off in one chunk.

The log in the trench.

Packing the log with dirt.

The compleated water bar!
From left to right: Mr. B, Tyler, Nick, Ben, Me, David and Ryan. My dad was taking the picture.

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!

Sons of man and angles say: Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens and earth reply: Alleluia.



Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!

Where, o death, is now your sting? Alleluia!

Dying once He all doth save, Alleluia!

Where thy victory, o grave? Alleluia!



Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!

Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!

Death in vain forbids Him rise, Alleluia!

Christ has opened Paradise, Alleluia!



Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!

Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!

Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!

Ours the cross, the grave, the skyes, Alleluia!



Happy Easter

Commando Training

Ever have those days when you feel like GI Joe and do all kinds of cool things like blow up trucks, run obstacle courses, drop out of 2nd windows.
Well Wednesday I did some thing very daring. (Or very dumb)

That dude is me. dropping out of the barn was fun. It did hurt though. It is tricky to land. You have to land on the balls of your feet, with your legs bent and your stomach sucked in. I don't know how the SAS Agents do it. I guess that I still have a way to go before I can join the army!  

One, No, Scratch That, 4 Pictures of ME! (For those who can't get enough of me!)

OK, here is my ugly mug! Enjoy. (You might have seen it at the post office)



That is me giving my oration of The Gods of the Copybook Headings at a
homeschool fine arts night. I get a little excited when I get to yell at people and do hand motions.

That's me after I made a model cross bow.

My normal face! I'm surprised that this one didn't break the camera.

My buddy Chris and I looking at Mount Washington from the porch of our
Radio Merit Badge Counclor's house.

This might be what you are doing right now!

2 Songs

OK, this is just not fair. there are lot of songs that I like.

1.  Courageous by Casting Crowns. I first heard this song when I watched the music video on the Courageous website. I really like this song.
2. When We're Together by Mark Harris. I like the music in this song a. It's a nice tune and a "happy song' as my mom would say!

Tomorrow is the last day!
