Today is my last day off, and I am preparing for my next trip into the
backcountry. My job, at least for a few days, is to take loads of roofing material into the two cabins where it will be put on . This is a very tall task, as I believe there is around 800lbs going in via boat, canoe,and manpower, which is where I come in. The ranger I was to be working with had to leave suddenly due to a death in the family. So I believe I will accomplish the above task, then come out and hike into a new location to assist another ranger. I am excited because I will get to go to a new locations, and also because I will be working on multiple projects. Should be fun. We are in the process of working out the
logistics, as well as the best way for me to have all the supplies I need without
luggin around a weeks worth of gear. I am only suppose to be on for 4 days, and then have 5 more days off. But I spoke with my boss and told him that I am here to work and I only want days off when I have visitors and to go to the store. He seemed OK with the idea, so hopefully I can tag along with others for more trips and experience.
Today I have just been
hangin out. I worked out earlier, did some laundry, messed around on the computer, and tried to get all my gear ready for the upcoming workweek. We are having and early meeting tomorrow morning to get everything figured out, then
i'm off. I was told to have everything I need organized and ready, and then I can gather it quickly once decisions are made. Sounds good to me.
I may post
again, otherwise I'm out to the woods for a while.
Love
Yall!
