Day 1
Today for intersession we went to Elfin Forest Reserve. We started off with a nice little hike and then came to our working areas! We were set apart in groups of threes. Each group had to cut done some trees to clear up the area. I've never cut down a tree before, so it was a fun experience for me. I found out in this period of time, that I love the sound of trees cracking and falling. It was a lot of work, but really fun!

Day 3
Today we got a chance to go to the elementary school to help out kids and teachers. I was assigned to the reading room, and I was the only helper there. I only had to watch over a few kids. The teacher then called me over to organize the books. The teacher was super sweet! I did a lot of more work that I thought I would, and that's a good thing. I cleaned and cleared up all of their exabition stuff. That was a lot of work. Overall I had a great time!

Day 4
Today we went to Border angels. There is a lot of people that have amazing stories and really hard lives. It really changed my perspective on my life. We went to home depot to give out lunches to the workers that need help and that have very little. I gave out my sack lunch to this man, and when I gave him that lunch his face lit up like a flame on a candle. There was this other man that would share his lunch with others. He was so kind. This experience really made me look at my life. I am so blessed.
