Chest Weight Training and a New Project

There was a ton going on today here at NOLS Southwest. We got our Medicine in the Wild course out the door and then our two Borders Semesters returned from their rock climbing camps. Tomorrow these two courses pack up and we drive them at 4 a.m. (?!) to the airport for their journey to NOLS Pacific Northwest. They will then complete their semesters by sailing and sea kayaking. That will wrap up a pretty hectic week for all of us here at the base.

Tomorrow I am going to make a fat bar dumbbell handle. I am hoping to be able to make one that can take a beating, is adjustable and that I can use for exercises like a clean to press and snatches. I will keep you posted on how it turns out.

Todays quote is from Henry David Thoreau:

"It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?"
