The Easter Egg hunt is on!
After a fun day of service my team returned to the Ava compound with a
sweet tooth. They proceeded to find all
but 3 of the 18 hidden throughout the trailer and let out exclamations of joy
whenever one contained the treasured Reese Pieces. I’d count this as a success! Note to self, next time I buy multi flavored
jelly beans avoid the ones with the “buttered popcorn” taste. Eating one of these resulted in expressions
similar to what one might expect to see after chomping down on a Bertie Bott’s
vomit flavored bean.
As for our fun
day, we got to work on the Hercules fire tower!
It has 9 flights of stairs and climbing the 4th puts you above the tree
line to give you an idea of its height.
We took out the stairs one plank at a time, sawed a new one, then
replaced the rotten and breaking boards.
The task may have been a little perilous, but I felt more attached to
this project than any other I have undertaken in AmeriCorps. I’m hoping we get to go back tomorrow, but
I’ll settle for a fire too! Night
friends. Hope you all are doing well!
