If At First You Don’t Succeed …
I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it, before, but today, I cut a piece of bamboo (about 12 feet long) and took it with me to the swamp to replace the log that broke under my weight a couple of days ago. The idea was to hang, upside down, over the deep soupy … Continue reading
