I'm planning on getting out and carving some stuff! Traveling down south over the weekend to visit a few folks so I'll get some carving in during the downtime.
What adventures are you planning?

I'm busy on Saturday.
But Sunday will be my own.
What I get up to will depend on the weather - I just don't enjoy being out in the heat.
It might just be a walk in the countryside, haven't been geocaching for a while, or maybe string the hammock up somewhere and just while away an afternoon reading a book, could do some wildlife spotting. Or maybe just sit beneath a tree in the shade with a nice view and do a bit of whittling.
Something like that.
Be nice if people posted a picture or two of what they did do.

I’m hoping on having an overnighter with my 6 year old daughter. Only in the garden most likely but it’ll be her first night under canvas 
Funny you should say that - I'm helping to administrate the Rotary Club Across Wales Walk - 42 miles in one day. I volunteer with a group of mountain enthusiasts so we're on radio cover and emergency response.
In actuality I'll be out in the field from 2 o'clock Saturday morning till gone 10 at night - its going to be slog but nothing compared to those that are walking it!

Not being in Nature.
Son reminded me that I had promised to make a kitchen knife to a friend in Norway, which I forgot.
Going next Thursday, so my work is set for this weekend!
Reshaped factory made blade, Sterling Silver "broken Ice" bolster, Masur Birch handle, Gun stock oiled.

I ended up at a few different places, lots of slow traffic to get from Wales to England! Bournemouth beach, new forest, sitting around the fire pit with an old friend on his birthday, lovely time...
working in Southampton at the moment and going back tuesday night, might be doing a river swim tomorrow, should be fun, and cold!!!

I was particularly cunning - knowing that a lot of people wold be indoors watching the football I timed my stroll along the North Downs Way to coincide with the England game so there would be less people about. I was right - all I saw was another lone walker and loads of sheep...
Since the Downs are made of chalk there were several orchids blooming...

My wife and I got out for a fishing trip, I kept a few for the dinner table.
I was with Wayland, Crosslandkelly and co from the Steam Teant Co-Operative at Blists Hill Steampunk event over the weekend.
It was the first public display by our group and was a great weekend if a tad hot

Hmmmm! Looks like you all had fun. I didn’t get my overnighter with my daughter instead the youngest brought home a stomach bug and then I ended up recovering my parents Freelander after it expired in the local town It adds to the spice of life I suppose and there’s always another weekend. Glad you all had fun

I’m on my way to Romania to look at our venue for our Bushcraft and tracking courses. I’m a little excited. Bison, Bear and wolf.
12 months hard work finally paying off.

My wife and I are leaving this Saturday for five days on an inland island. The island has a steep offshore drop on one side where the fish are waiting for my hooks. I'll try not to think about Romania. I'm excited about using my new entirely non-bushcraft iBobber sonar device. I promise to start some fires with bowdrill and flint & steel to atone for the electronics. (I still owe someone here a fire started with a lens, too.)
Heading up to the northwest coast of scotland this weekend for a week kayaking/walking. Bit warm for my liking, but hopefully its a bit cooler on the coast and further up.
Looking at my pile of ration packs compared to the cooking pictured above... just not the same at all..

To Southampton airport for a very impromptu trip to Biarritz. Not in the slightest bit bushcrafty I’m afraid, but a very welcome break.
To be honest, I’d be happy in my hammock again playing with the new stove, but Madam needs a complete change of scene just at the moment.
