avoiding projectiles



Seth and Andy have been busy building the only working trebuchet on the block.
This house turns 100 next year, and this lovely lamp has lasted that long on the newel post. I don't want it to be destroyed on my watch, so all trebuchet launches are directed down the hall.

I believe I'm seeing the work of a future engineer, or will it be architect do you think? I can only imagine what he can do with an erector set.

I can only hope for engineer or architect--my fear is he will become a siege-layer.

Looks like a perfect Boy Toy. What fun! Good idea to aim away from that beautiful lamp.

Gotta love his genius at work! It looks like you've got one lovely home, Lynn! That woodwork is spectacular!
