Using sticks and having a stick with notches is something I was doing yesterday. I was also handling a tree branch that had to be over twenty feet long, but it was almost as thin as a stretched out pool cue. I was thinking of playing around with that in the water of Lake Erie, my next stop, but it bent too easily. Considering what is washing around in the currents that become the Niagara River, my play can get a return.
