Last Day of Operation Double Trouble! The house that my crew started at the end of the day Thursday needs to be finished, we worked on it yesterday too. Today we have thrown everyone that is left on it so that we can wrap up and spend the afternoon cleaning everything.
Yesterday was a joy because jumped in the river after work and enjoyed the outdoors. Today we followed up with scheduled river time. It is a beautiful river, and so hard to believe that it went up 40 or 50 feet (or more some claimed).
We worked with the homeowners cousin (brother? Er, now I forget) and a guy named Sid who ran the loader. Between Sid on his Loader and the kick ass team we had still in place we were able to come up with what ended up feeling like a seamless process. Mind you, yesterday I got a truck stuck, so they’re having me ride in the passenger seat. I like to remind people what not to do by showing them.
So we are finishing up at the four week mark for this operation, I have been on the ground for two weeks. I am at the point that this is home. They would do well to turn me around to another operation. I have caught my second wind! Though I shouldn’t speak too soon as a little birdie just whispered about straight line winds striking an area back home…
I don’t that I have much to say today. It has been a crazy couple of weeks and I am not even through the first month of this trip. I am comfortable knowing I am not going back to that old job, and am excited to see where everything takes me. Hopefully I will hit the road on my own soon and figure out who I am, what I am doing, and where I want to plant my roots.
