Crossing the Hudson River. Finally, our slingshot is finished and after some last minute spray painting the night before, we were ready for the competition. We woke up early in the morning (some of us barely making it) and loaded the slingshot in the back of a U-Haul truck. Then we started on our long journey to Secor's Farm in LaGrange, NY. At the time of this picture, we were close to our destination.
