Roaring Rivers, Missouri, team yellow: new destination, new
team. Today marks the start of my first
10 day project for AmeriCorps. From what
I’ve gathered this doesn’t necessarily mean that our task will be more intense,
the extended time is due to the location where we will be serving. These projects are lengthened because they
typically take a day to reach and depart.
Anyhow, today was pretty much a day of travel. When we arrived we met our contact, Tim, who
showed us where we will start the following day. They termed the area Glade 10. It looks like we will be doing a lot of
limbing, bucking, and burn piles during our stay.
Our lodging and
the state park we are staying in are beautiful.
The only downside is that it appears there is no cell phone service
where we are sleeping. I feel bad as I
texted Haley right before we hit the dead zone.
Sorry Haley! I will have to see
if I can sneak in some time to call while we are out on project. But yes, clear rivers, walls and slabs of
giant stone spread throughout the greenery; I would love nothing more than to
just climb around the varying landscapes.
Maybe I will get my chance. For
now though it is time for bed. Good
night all. Talk to you tomorrow.
