A Fine and Pleasant Misery

Mistake Number One: Thinking it would be a good idea to pay for my trip to visit my brother, his wife and my new nephew by going treeplanting for a week.

Mistake Number Two: Acting upon this thought.

Mistake Number Three: Spending seven hours on the first day pounding four hundred and fifty trees an hour, while fighting a cold and operating on thirteen hours of sleep in the previous three nights.

One bonus: Planting in a bush camp with wireless internet, so I can inflict my misery on the world by posting this video on the interwebs. What will they think of next?
