May update

May started with me getting hooked on kayaking due to a whitewater kayak course that was held here on the Loisach that I went to with Jeremy and a few other friends. After that I got a boat and all the gear for the sport which added up to a little bit of money but in the long run well worth it because after the initial purchase you don't need anything to get out on the river. Another deciding factor is that the Loisach is literally 20 minutes from my house (on a bike) so I think I will get tons of time on the water this summer!

Days after making that large purchase I decided that it would be hard for me to find another car for the price of putting a new engine in my old Subaru so I decided to drop the money to make my old car drivable again. Making the decision easier was the fact that the guy who is working on the car already has an engine that will fit into my car sitting on his lot so in a week or so I will have a car again! All and all I think these purchases are both good and well help me out in future adventures.

The car that will soon live on!

The new job is great and I like the people I'm working with and the hours couldn't be better if I had asked for them. I work 20 hours a week which is what I was working in Graf but here I work two 8 hour days and one 4 hour day instead of working 4 hours a day everyday of the week. This schedule is going to keep me free to do lots of stuff during the week and when ski season hits...you can only imagine!!

A little project that I'm working on right now is making a kids bike trailer into a bicycle trailer that I could put my kayak behind if I don't want to drive my car. I think that in the end it will become a cargo trailer for whatever we want to carry.

What I have so far

 I have seen many examples of what people have done to make these trailers great and I can't wait to see how mine turns out! Right now all I have is the frame so I'm currently searching for two 16in wheels and a hitch. After I get those two things I will have fun making it as creative as possible, maybe add some ski attachments for winter!!
