Survivor Gavin

One might take this as a sign that our kids have been watching too much Survivorman and other similar shows on TV.  We came outside to Gavin working on a makeshift hand drill (typically made of a straight hard piece of wood that is rubbed back and forth between both of your hands and is notched into a small hole in a secondary piece of wood) to start a fire in the rocks on the side of our house.  You can see his partner in crime, Gage, standing right next to him watching.  I have to say it was a fairly good attempt and emulation of what we watch.  It is also a bit disturbing that he is trying to light fires next to our house, but I know that it is all in relation to his love of camping.  In many other occasions we come to this same spot and see him arranging wood in a nice stack as we have practiced while in the woods.  He also will arrange some bench and pretends to roast marshmallows over his fake fire.  It's hard to describe how much these guys love getting outdoors together.
