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!

Panther's Den - 8/7

We have come full circle.  Today as we were driving out of our campsite I realized why the area seemed familiar: the campground was the final mile of Quest for my team.  Fond memories ensued after that epiphany and the good times carried on throughout the day.  There was one point that we had to hike out of the woods to avoid a thunderstorm and we managed to do so without getting so much as a drop on us.  Don’t worry, Mother Nature made sure we got our dues.  After returning to work on the trail for the remainder of the day we were caught in a sudden downpour.  All of us were soaked through in a matter of seconds because of the surprise attack.  Most of the trail before our maintenance turned into a moat to complicate our return, but we overcame the obstacle with ease.


This is the first time I have gone through all of the clothes I packed.  I have to wear a damp A but the rest of me will start off the day dry tomorrow.  I’m hoping it stays that way as 5 wet people in a prolonged car ride can get a bit… fragrant.  Good night all!
