two inventions from yesterday

1. my macguyver move to save our boat

when we discovered it was missing an air plug.

i found a black balloon on the ground, 

stuck it in the hole, blew it up, 

tied it to the rope that went around the boat

so it wouldn't fall inside, then inflated the boat.

it held for most of the trip,
until i started towing the girls
while they held onto the rope.

2. a really long straw made by emily
