matt, your HOTness moves me, so i guess we'll call it even.

I concur with matt.

great read.

needless to say secret passages are a ever yearned for, rarely attained accomadation in houses today.

But speaking of forts, my good friends Justin and Jarad and I built this really awesome one, and you couldn't see it until you got close. It was hidden in some dense foliage, and really extreme. it had like old school, metal mattress supports as floors, and was so so cool! I remember running through the woods when a car came on the main street, and taking a quick right into the dense foliage to come upon the greatness that was our fort.

Also my cousin Kevin and I designed a really hardcore fort. It was only 10-15 feet off the ground, but it was probably 200 square feet of floor. We cut down 5 trees with hatchets and hoisted them up to these 4 other trees. we attached the fallen ones with rope and 9" nails, and designed an elevator to get you up. Very cool. Not very secret.
