This is the new device that Dad built. This is the device that entertained the boys that Dad built. This is the device that entertained the boys on a hot summer day that Dad built. This is one of many devices that have entertained the boys that Dad built. OK, are you getting irritated with that? I am.
Well, Dave is on the loose again....he was just itching to make this water
bottle cannon that he saw online made out a few pieces of PVC and a couple of other parts of which I have no clue what they are or what they do. Let me preface this by saying that several months ago, he was dying to build a pneumatic tennis ball shooter (or apple shooter, stuffed animal shooter, potato shooter, or whatever floats your boat shooter). The kids had SO much fun with that thing. I am not kidding when I say it can shoot a tennis ball over 200 ft. in the air. Hilarious.
Well, back to the water bottle cannon, all it takes is a little pump of air with the tire pump or air compressor, a bottle filled with water, and well, some clothes that you're willing to get wet. Oh, and a neighbor who doesn't get mad when several water bottles come crashing into her backyard, virtually out of nowhere. It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a......water bottle! I tell you, God knew what He was doing when he gave Dave three boys. I have to say, he is a great boy dad. He just loves making these concoctions for them to enjoy. I'm convinced he is living vicariously through them, as well. Dave really just wants to be a big kid with them and have fun.
