Lake Bagging

Lake Bagging — the waters of the world are challenging you

Lake Bagging (also spelled lakebagging) is an up-and-coming sport where participants seek to visit (or swim in) as many lakes or ponds within a given area as possible. Aerial view of Lake Minnetonka and surrounding lakes, Minnesota Lake Bagging is usually focused around lists of lakes meeting certain criteria, with the goal being to visit all lakes on the given list.

Example lists might be:

  • All named lakes in Washington’s Alpine Lakes Wilderness
  • The 100 largest freshwater lakes in the world
  • All reservoirs in France

Lake Bagging is inspired by other geographical challenges such as peakbagging, countrybagging, degree confluence hunting.

Cute puppies wearing clothes

So You’re Interested In Puppies In Clothes…

Well you’ve come to the right place 🙂

Cute puppies wearing clothes are guaranteed to make your day AWESOME! They don’t have to wear clothes, it isn’t required or expected, and that’s why every time you see a cute dog wearing a costume or a bandanna, or a bow-tie, it makes you gleeful.

But, do they like it?

Should dogs wear clothes? I think so. It adds to our enjoyment, and as a result dogs wearing clothes tend to get more attention than dogs that walk around naked. We all know dogs loooove attention, so this seems to be a win-win.

via GIPHY

Is this a thing? Do dogs really wear clothes? Yup.

So what types of dog clothes are most common? From my experience, people love to dress dogs up like people. I mean, they’re basically family members, right?

(he loves it, don’t worry…)

Serious cuteness ahead

My personal favorite is dressing puppies up like OTHER ANIMALS. Pandas, lions, fish, cats…. It’s adorable. Undeniably.

Also, I think they know. Have you ever seen a more majestic doggo?

Origami Crane Paper

When selecting the best paper for your origami crane, there are a number of characteristics you should look for.

Commonly the cranes are assembled as 25 strings of 40 cranes each. The size of the origami paper does matter when assembling a thousand paper cranes, but smaller sheets consequently yield smaller and lighter strings of cranes. The most popular size for senbazuru is 7.5 by 7.5 centimetres (3.0 in × 3.0 in).

Below is a list of 10 of these characteristics:

  1. Should be quality think(ish) paper.
  2. Origami cranes need to be pretty.
