Bamboo Hurtling is Surprisingly Soothing!

We have been pulling up bamboo shoot after bamboo shoot in our backyard recently. Apparently this will be a favored activity for as many Springs as we own this house. The bright side of this whole things is that young shoots break off quite easily, the thicker the shoot the easier they are to pull. Also, they are the perfect shape and weight for hurtling over the back fence. It's just another reason we are fortunate to have a humongous bamboo grove between us and our neighbors to the rear.

You should watch old episodes of Gilligan's Island to discover what cool inventions you can create from bamboo, like Mr. Howell's patio bar. Maybe you could build a bamboo hut.

Maybe I can find a bamboo coffee bar project at Lowe's Creative Ideas.
