Me , Isaac, and my friend Drew (who lives next to us while he's on vacation) found some trees in the dry river behind our house. They were tall and shady, so we decided that that would be our clubhouse. We got some sticks and pretended that they were swords and javelins and spears. Drew had some knives, and, cutting away from ourselves, we sharpened the sticks. Then, we each got an old shirt and cut off the sleeves, and taped them together and used duct tape to make a design. We put the sleeves on a stick so that it could be our flag. Then, we got our shirts and put gray duct tape all over the front. This helped us for two reasons:
1. It helped us not get hurt from jumping through sticks and leaves.
2. It helps us stay cool because it reflects the sunlight.
Then, we got white duct tape and put our symbol on the front and back of the "armor".
We brought down some snacks and put them in a waterproof container, put that in a large cereal box along with a fold-up shovel and some tape, put a rope through a hole in the box, and lifted it up into a tree so that wild animals wouldn't get it. We each brought a jug of water in case we got thirsty, and we put a board on top of a hole so that we could hide things in it. I dug some steps into the dirt so that we could get down and up more easily. Here are some more pictures:
