"He who sweateth in training bleedeth not in battle"

back in my more "rambunctious" (sp?) days, i would go into the woods, armed only with a knife. id build myself a nice little lean-to out of small saplings in the area. i found that the stripped bark worked quite well as lashing. id spend all day in this little thing, thinking up new ways to improve it and incorporate more naturally occuring accesories. in fact, i was very happy with myself when i figured out that snow packed in between the sapling/lashings created a VERY nice insulation when combined with a lil fire inside. all in all, i was just "playing", but if it got bad, i could always run home. moral of the story. if you plan on playing, there is nothnig wrong with having a back-up plan.


did this make any sense? eh...ill post anyway.HA!
