Greetings

Welcome to my little corner of the inter-webs! I just wanted to take this space to warn you that my posts will rarely be up to date. Due to the spontaneity of natural disasters and the unpredictability of when AmeriCorps' services will be requested I will be digitizing my journal entries whenever we return to St. Louis. Oh, and most of the pictures you see here were taken by myself. If ever I do use someone else's material I make a point to give them due credit though! That said, come, leave comments and be merry! I hope you enjoy your stay!

Skeeboggan Trail - 7/18

The Skeeboggan trail is coming along nicely.  The entire trail is dug out and we just need to remove the organic matter to prevent deterioration.  There were a couple of bikers that we ran into on the hike up today and they had tried using our trail.  One of them hit a rock pit and flew over his handlebar.  We felt sorry for them, but we did put a gigantic branch over the start of it to prevent this from happening.  Anyhow, after talking to them we decided to widen the trail around the turns just to be safe as a stretch of it is on a ridge and too quick of a turn would throw the rider over the edge.  In short, today was another physically taxing and very productive day.  We should easily be able to knock out the last bit of it tomorrow.
