Gotcha Crash,I knew he was just trying to make himself feel better after having posted THAT!Quote:

Dry friction resists relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact. Dry friction is also subdivided into static friction between non-moving surfaces, and kinetic friction (sometimes called sliding friction or dynamic friction) between moving surfaces.
Lubricated friction[1] or fluid friction[2][3] resists relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces separated by a layer of gas or liquid.
Fluid friction is also used to describe the friction between layers within a fluid that are moving relative to each other.[4][5]
Skin friction is a component of drag, the force resisting the motion of a solid body through a fluid.
Internal friction is the force resisting motion between the elements making up a solid material while it undergoes deformation.[5]
Friction is not a fundamental force, as it is derived from electromagnetic force between charged particles, including electrons, protons, atoms, and molecules, and so cannot be calculated from first principles, but instead must be found empirically. When contacting surfaces move relative to each other, the friction between the two surfaces converts kinetic energy into thermal energy, or heat. Contrary to earlier explanations, kinetic friction is now understood not to be caused by surface roughness but by chemical bonding between the surfaces.[6] Surface roughness and contact area, however, do affect kinetic friction for micro- and nano-scale objects where surface area forces dominate inertial forces.[7]
That probably comes in handy for starting fires.
rebel....analysis not needed here,Rick wiggled his tush at Lorna wanting another spanking:tongue_smilie:Quote:

Canoes, throwing knives and axes, Wow this is realy coming together. How do you throw a canoe though???? I have some expierence with knives and axes but not canoes. I will be glad to help with the first two. Might I suggest a trade blanket. Evdey one puts something on it and then you draw names , straws, etc to see who gets first pick down to the last. How about a traditional archery shoot as well.
Canoe tossing is a relatively new sport. It has been derived from the old Scotish sport of caber tossing.

We're still working on the details.

It's all in the kilt. Really.
I tossed the caber more than a few times in my younger days. Believe me it's not just in the kilt....it's in the back, the legs, the arms and in the will. I was up at the Comptom Traditional Archery Rendevous this past weekend. Picked up an over the fire grill outfit made by a blacksmith. nothing close to an ultra light camping rig but a few of the features make it the cat's pajamas for car camping.I also picked up an accessory a coffee pot hanger that has a built in tipper to pour the coffee once completed which is simply put cool beans.
If anybody is interested, I'll bring some knapping tools along with a bucket of baked coral and assorted rocks. Not sure if anybody wants to experience the joy/frustration of breaking rocks.
Are you bringing lots of bandaids as well? Guess its a good thing I am a paramedic and RN. I may actualy be of some use now.
Don't forget the safety glasses!!!!
(Knife and Axe throwing and sharp splinters of rock flyin'. This is gonna be soooo ugly).
R.spencer..... Good I'll also bring my trauma box and jump kit. maybe we can get a chance to practice field surgery??
R_Spencer: The archery shoot is fine with me. I don't have any archery equipment but we will be 1/4 miles +/- from the archery range so if anyone wants to offer up any training, I'm game. Except for the apple on the head thing. Nope, not gonna do it.
The wife and I are heading down there on Saturday to scope things out and pick up some info packs for everyone. Here's my last post before we go as to who is on the list:
Hoosierarcher
Crashdive123
Nell67
Doug1980
Tennecedar
Kemporer
Pgvoutdoors
R.Spencer
Oldsoldier
Anyone/Everyone is welcome to attend. If you want me to pick up an information package for you and mail it to you then just let me know. Otherwise, be there or be square!!
The more the merrier. Who knows, if this takes hold it could be big....bigger than the Burning Man Festival even.
I'm almost positive I'll be attending..... couple small things might interfere, but very unlikely.
I found out last night that I have training Aug 13-16. I wish I could've made it. Maybe next time. Someone take pics!
rebel... i plan on taking my digital camera along plan on taking as many as I can then post them so everyone can copy them if everyone agrees
Oh, fear not.....there will be plenty of pictures taken. Now if I can just figure out how to keep from falling in the water with my camera around my neck.
I can provide traditional archery training, and I will bring extra bows for those who don't have one.
How about one of these?Quote:

Back in my diving days I had several dive cameras (Nikonos, Sea & Sea), but just could not bring myself to put my good SLR in an Ikelite housing.
Crash don't worry if you fall in we'll toss you a rock..er.... I mean a rope
I'm not worried about me.....it's the camera. Don't want to trash another one!
Has anyone heard from Rick?? Just want to be sure he didn't make a wrong turn at the camp ground at G-S park and end up in wyoming.
He should be back tonight or tomorrow. He had a side trip planned.
Cool I was beginning to get worried you know how helpless rick is when he does'nt have us around to show or tell him what to do.
i may be new but i wont be able to come this year
maybe when im 16 or if next year we can do it at the dunes national park its closer to me.........
Fear not! All is well. We spent Saturday and Sunday at Greene-Sullivan. I didn't realize it but the Forest Office closed at noon on Saturday and isn't open on Monday. As a result, I didn't get to talk to them in person. I have, however, requested an information packet for each of you.
The Reservoir 26 campground is the best of the three. I give it an 9 out of 10 for a primitive campground. It's a great deal like a city park. Not a lot of primitive to it. There was potable water nearby, each camp site has a fire ring and picnic table and there were a couple of nice pit toilets in the camp. Here are a bunch of pics of the area.
Here is the spot we stayed at looking out over the campground. Ours was the last spot in the northwest corner of the campground.

These next three will give you a panorama of the campground. The first is our camp on the left.

Looking at the right side of the campground.

Here is a picture of the boat ramp at the lake. I've circled a wooden structure on the levee. The campground is immediately to the right of the levee. You can see a space in the trees in the photo.

A shot of the main body of the lake. Yes, those are islands in the lake. Probably 8 or 9 of them. Remember, the 120 or so lakes in the area were formed by strip mining many years ago.

A picture from the campground looking at the path to the top of the levee. The wooden structure is to the right on top of the levee. Not in the picture.

Here's a shot of the pavilion at the archery range. The archery club was meeting on Saturday. There are grill areas and a pit toilet at this site.

A picture of the four spaced targets.

There is also a walking archery area that simulates hunting. I've circled an elk target and another target in the picture.

Finally, what car camping trip would be complete without roasting marshmallows?

We sampled a few of the different lakes although it was very windy on Sunday. We did have a couple of widow makers drop from the trees. One in the camp next to ours and one in our camp but the other side of the tree. I had made certain our stuff was in the clear when we pulled in.
We saw quite a few wild turkeys (let the jokes begin) in the area. Mostly singles and a few pairs.
Firewood was $3 a box, which consisted of about 8 sticks about a foot long by 4 inches thick. All of it was split and I picked it out myself. As I said, Emerald Ash Borer is a real problem in Indiana so transporting firewood is not allowed. And the wood on the ground has to be left to maintain the natural flora. I did put the widow makers to use, however.
You can see the campground is pretty open and flat so if we want to do knife and axe throwing I don't think that will be a problem. We should have plenty of room to do so.
We had a great time. Hopefully, the Forest Office will send the info packets and I'll get them out to you. If I missed anything or you have any questions, just ask.
