Hello From Eric and Alec

Alec got slammed with a pretty involved homework assignment, and that's kept us both out of the Dojo this week. The assignment was to create an accurate scale model of a castle, complete with all walls, towers, buildings, and a mote. (Moat? Mote?....whatever....) He actually designed and drew up the whole project by himself. But, to get it done in the incredibly small amount of time they had to work on it, I helped him by cutting out the cardboard pieces. If you've never cut up 1/8" thick architects modeling cardboard with a Dremel Tool, all I can say is that it smells horrible and gets you covered with dust and dirt. In any case, I think he did a great job, and I'm very proud of him. A picture is attached with a VCR tape for size reference. (Does everyone remember VCR tapes, or am I dating myself here?)

I hope to see you all Saturday morning!

Eric (and Alec and Sandra and Jessica)
