My team surprised me again!
Before I went to bed the majority of them came in from the back porch
and sang me happy birthday while presenting 2 cartons of ice cream and 2
lighters. The lighters were just for show
and were a piece of cake to blow out, but the ice cream was delicious (Neapolitan,
if you were curious). Thank you one and
all for a great birthday!
As for our service project, we went back to the Clear Springs
trail and finished it. Unlike the Godwin
trail, this one has not been used in over a year, which explains all of the overgrowth. It is also primarily for horses and there is
no easy access point to bring and park a trailer. Still, after 2 days of clearing fallen trees
and brush by hand the Clear Springs trails are once again open for business!
I did sustain a semi-deep cut right below my elbow, a slight
miscalculation on my teammate’s part, but it didn’t hurt that much. It bled nicely for a couple minutes and then
stopped on its own accord. Hopefully it
will heal well as it is in an awkward spot.
I also got that floss wad out with a lot of patience, persistence, and a
lot more floss. So I guess I traded
maladies and I’m ok with that.
I’m going to go hang out with my fellow trailblazers and
enjoy the cabin while it lasts. It looks
like we will be going back to camping next week. Here’s hoping we have access to some
showers! Later all!
