Open Warrior

Wow, what a productive day!
We got off to a rather late start since we were all rather tired from yesterday, but in the end we got an amazingly large amount of work done.

We started off by heading to Waheeb’s house. Waheeb’s parents are busy renovating their house so there’s load of wood and metal lying around, which they said we were free to take.

We spent some time separating the useful wood and metal from the messy stuff. It didn’t take us too long, but since we were working in the sun, we were all pretty tired once we were done.

Once we had everything we thought we were going to use stacked up, we made our way back to our main place of work – Colin’s driveway.

Our plan for the day was to complete ‘The Four Pillars’ – these pillars are going to be the four corners of our main structure and thus need to be really strong, and sturdy. So, after spending some time planning exactly what we were going to do, we got to work.

Once again, Bradley outshone everyone, with his ability to use the tools we had available, and coming up with solutions to the general problems we were having. I don’t know how we’d be able to get anything done without him.

Waheeb had a try at putting some paper mache together for the sculptures which are planned to litter our campsite. It was still drying by the time we were finished so I don’t know how well it’s worked out yet, but I guess we’ll see tomorrow.

We finished building the four pillars at about 9pm, and sat down for a bit to relax and celebrate. All in all, it was a great day. We got lots done and had loads of fun doing it! Tomorrow we’re going to start working on the decorations for our camp site. Hopefully it will be less intense than today…I’m exhausted!
