Just got back from a long weekend in Ottawa Ontario, where myself and 3 friends competed in the Red Bull Flugtag. It's a competition of human powered flight. We built a hang glider (seen here being piloted by Matt the Lobster) that was launched off a 12 foot tall lighthouse. We ran into all kinds of problems, but flew 62 feet for second in distance, and 3rd overall. And we had an absolute blast doing it. But it's nice to be home and back to tending my pumpkin plants that all stopped growing way to early, and their associated pumpkins that I'm still waiting to see if they will grow. Tough year here, I've got a major problem in the patch, and I'm not quite sure what it is. Just hoping for a few boat sized (and maybe boat shaped) pumpkins this year now.
