Projects again

No matter how hard we seem to work there's still something there in that fort that needs to be done.
Oh incidentally we did manage to take down the tree.Oddly enough we decided to have a small contest and tried to predict where it would land by driving stakes into the ground, the closest stake would win. Ted did win, with me in second but where I had placed my stake was my second guess.If my first guess that it would fall on Ted was allowed(nulled only because I couldn't drive my stake into him.) I would have been the closest. Before you take a hart attack, Ted didn't have the tree fall on him (it was pretty close though).

Any hoo, I manged to get a flag pole mounted. It only stands about 10 or 11 feet though so it can't really catch the wind. That will change when I get around to putting up the 50 foot one.

For no apparent purpose(well now that I think about it, it did have the purpose of saving space)
I stuck a tree into the ground in my fort. That may not sound amazing until you see that it has 9'6" foot hight and 1 foot diameter at the base. I mounted this piller using a crude A-frame and Ted. If there is ever any doubt that I did it,It is perfectly sawed off at the top and no one around here has the necessary equipment to do that to a standing tree.I did it mostly to demonstrate Sardion authority in technology, and fine arts(and that thing was so heavy that there was nothing else useful I could do with it).
