Today was another wonderful day! We split into our two groups again and went to the cemetery and the Catholic Worker House. It was drizzly this morning, so instead of heading out to the Catholic Worker House's "farm" we stayed and helped at the house. We cleaned their city chicken coup, picked peas and strawberries, laid hay in with their potatoes, weeded, and cleaned the house. While we were working, many of us talked with one of the main volunteers there and learned a lot about causes of poverty and justice issues.
We just worked in the morning today, because in the afternoon/evening we hit up Adventureland Theme Park. Not going to lie, it was WET! Everyone came back drenched, but had a blast! We even brought back two HUGE stuffed animals too!
The kids have been really great- they have been working hard and at the park all of them checked in one time and were on time when it was time to leave. They've all been getting along great! Tonight we're having a little free time back at our lodge- its nice to relax for a bit. In the morning we are heading out to location number two!!!
Hope all is well back home!
