There is more rain in the forecast.<\/p>\n<p>Today, after I mowed as much as I could, I uncovered the clay pit for some bondage in the clay. Since the clay pit is on high ground and it is covered, it&#8217;s not affected by the rain. It started raining on me while I was playing in the clay. I didn&#8217;t let that stop me from enjoying myself a while longer. Actually, it took me over 5 minutes to break free of the clay, so I couldn&#8217;t have just run for cover, even if I had reason to. In the picture on the left, I&#8217;m lifting myself up by my arms and twisting and pulling on my legs to break them free. I was up to my crotch when I started the extrication effort, and my ankles are tied together, so I can&#8217;t pull one leg out at a time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/2014-08-02_inversion1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2763\" src=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/2014-08-02_inversion1-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"2014-08-02_inversion1\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/2014-08-02_inversion1-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/2014-08-02_inversion1-99x150.jpg 99w, https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/2014-08-02_inversion1.jpg 682w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a>About a week ago, I made a 3rd attempt at my inverted suspension in the woods. This time, it kept raining, so I was getting rained on while I was shooting. The rain wasn&#8217;t heavy, but it was steady. Having tried this twice before, I took extra steps to make sure I&#8217;d get some decent photos. I feel like this was a successful shoot, so I&#8217;m going to post a few more photos in <a title=\"2014 Images\" href=\"https:\/\/mudlover.com\/theswamp\/?page_id=2364\">the gallery<\/a> and take a rest from hanging upside down.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m anxious to get out mudding, again. Maybe the break was good for me, but this rain needs to stop, regardless of whether I go mudding, or not.<\/p>\n<p>I have to make this short, because it&#8217;s getting late and I have a 6 mile hike in the morning. I hope everyone is doing well. I&#8217;ll have another video to release in the next few days.
