I am back from Wisconsin! It was an amazing trip. Hayden and I spent most of our time in the woods, making maple syrup and building awesome forts. Well, maybe our forts were not so awesome. This picture should explain something…

FORT BUILDING FAIL.

Hayden fell through our makeshift roof. A classic AFV moment. We even considered sending this to FailBlog.org, but we thought it might be a little to obscure.

When we weren’t in the woods, we watched Netflix movies and made donuts. Yes, made donuts. Also, it was Hayden’s dad’s fiftieth birthday, so that was fun. They bought him an iPod Classic, while MY dad’s iPod was stolen out of his car this weekend. Huh. ~THE CIRCLE OF LIFE~.

Hayden and I chopped up most of that fallen tree. It was very fun.

I love my hat.

I heard that Chicago had a so-called “spring fail” this weekend. In other words, half-solid water particles fell from the sky. It snowed in Wisconsin, too, which was both fun and irritating. You see, Hayden and I had been planning to make a camp and (try to) sleep out in the woods, but it was too cold to do that. Instead, we went sledding for 2 1/2 minutes and then came back inside to play on AddictingGames.com.

The “furnace” we built.

This morning, we woke up and made French toast. But it wasn’t just any french toast. It was DUCK EGG FRENCH TOAST.

Duck egg french toast, deliciously accompanied by our homemade maple syrup.

… and then I had to come back to Chicago for a meeting with my Cantor about my Bar Mitzvah. My mom started bawling just thinking about my Bar Mitzvah, especially when we mentioned all the family honor type stuff, where my relatives come up and say stuff and things like that. Yeah.

Wisconsin sure is beautiful. It would (will) be even better when the leaves come out. Oh, leaves, please come out.

P.S. This car is awesome and I love it and it is amazing.

It reminds me of Mexico where there are things just like this.. maybe this is in Mexico.

You could probably find, say, eighty percent of these things in my house. I don’t know if I should be proud or disgusted.

P.P.S. Bob Dylan has a free song out on his site for download. “Hmm.. I dunno. There’s like this gypsy-ish feeling to it that I’m not so sure about. I need to listen again.”
