WCC - Week 17

Admiration
The days grow noticeably longer with every week that passes. Our mornings, on a cloudless day, are no longer started in darkness. We see the sunrise as we prepare for our days. I noticed myself and others take a moment to appreciate the beauty of these new mornings. The same also goes for the end of the day for the transition from afternoon to evening. I find myself describing many moments as poetically as I can. It brings my mind into the moment. It makes things more enjoyable. Try it.

Fred Miranda WA #434 - Out of Place


Out of Place


WCC - Week 16

South Pautzke continues

Monday

This was quite the jumbled day with a few people missing and vehicle mishaps. Michelle, worn and weary from completing round 2 of her search and rescue training, used her comp day. Max joined Team Coho to work on their coir fabric levee. Snowflake was having some electrical issues and tied up Kris. Shea traveled with Andy. Sarra and I went with Geoff in Dumpy to get to Pautzke.

On our way, we were merging into Highway 18 from 167 through a weaving lane. Geoff had to pull onto the median to get onto the exit road because a car would not let us in! We later found out that Dumpy's right turn signal had burned out again. As we approached the exit, Dumpy began to lose power. Great. We could not get her restarted, so we called a tow truck to pick her up. Andy arrived to pick us up and wait for the tow truck.
