Day#14

 Today we woke up a little bit later than usual. We had to clean the house and then help Trask heard the cows. The cows didn’t want to leave their pen but with a little grain they left. It was pretty difficult to heard the cows to the other pen and it took close to a hour. The cows wanted to go everywhere but the other pen and so they would run all around the property and we had to gather them. After we finished we cleaned the rest of the house and left for campus. Dinner was good at the dinning hall. Hours today 2 Total 59.5

Day#13

 Today we woke up a bit later than normal and had breakfast before heading to campus. We had plans to make a sign to put in our trail. We got to campus and talked to Annie Mac for a little while. We grabbed so wood from the woodshop and cut it into pieces. We planned them down and brought them to the library. Spencer wasn’t on campus today so we have to wait until tomorrow to laser cut the names into the wood. We played some lax and headed home. I grilled burgers for dinner.  Hours today 1.5 Total 56.5

Day #12

 Today we woke up at 9 and got to work. Me and augie got to chopping down big trees in the clearing with the axe. It was a lot of fun and Augie got a couple blisters. After we cut down the trees I carved my name in one of the downed trees with the saw. We all watched some lacrosse on the tv and had pasta for dinner. The clearing looks really good and just needs some traffic to smooth it all out. There are lots of little stumps all over that we need to get rid of.  Hours 3 Total 56

Day#11

 Today we got to work by 9. I had egos for breakfast and we got to work. I tightened the saw chain and filled it up with gas. Augie was pumped because Trask got augie a new axe after he broke the first one twice. We cleared a large amount of the clearing and made a huge brush pile by the rock wall. Trask came with his tractor and picked up the big piles and trees and piled them up. We went to campus with a puppy named ziggy and had Chick-fil-A with the team.  Hours today 8 Total hours 53

Day#9

 Today we woke up and started work at 9. I had yogurt for breakfast because someone left the milk out of the fridge the night before. The pigs had gotten out again and had rooted out a bit of the yard. We took the tools down the trail that we had cleared the past couple days. Trask filled in the beginning of of the trail with sand because it was flooded and muddy. We cleared more of the clearing at the top of the hill. I had my last lacrosse game of the year and lost 6-9.

Day #7

 Today we woke up at 9 same as usual. We headed up the hill on the mule and got to clearing trail. We probably doubled the length of the trail that we had done the day before. We have gotten close to the top of the hill and will clear out a landing at the top. the chain came off of the saw a couple times but I figured out how to tighten it so that it wouldn't happen as much. We had leftovers from Taco Night the night before. then we went to practice and ate dinner at school.
