June Recap

Free fishing day was fun. There were over 300 people that stopped by and tons of kids to play with. Everyone seemed to be in very good spirits. I think it was great way to promote people getting out side and doing things. We gave out tons of Junior Ranger Badges. Even the sand that was coating us from head to toe was not horrible just very dirty. Free exfoliation was included with the day.

Water Safety event will be coming up on July 18th. Very similar yet different.

Forever Earth mobile visitor center -- retro fitted houseboat that goes to the coves in the lake and from there we jump out and give people information. Did this last Saturday. Way fun. Only the second time I had been out on the lake. Really neat. Tons of people at the coves. Myself and Sky talked to about 225 people. Very sunny warm day. Great day to spend out on the lake. Next trip out will be July 11.

Interp Training -- oh my what a week. Don't think I really want a repeat of that week for quite some time. I basically was in charge of the 4 day training with little supervision. Not necessarily a bad thing just stressful. Got all the presenters lined up then on Sunday, I had to change 2 morning schedules due to meeting, Monday morning get a call from a 2 presenters that day that they could not show up when schedule. So I was changing all kinds of things on the fly. I basically spent each night back at the office trying to get ready for the next day. At least 2 hours of OT each night. Crazy.

Grad classes -- classes started last week-- on top of training going haywire. There were thoughts of oh great what have I got myself into. Actually many times those thoughts came into my head. I survived the first week and have a much better outlook now. Amazing how a little bit of time can help bring things back into balance.

Overall---June was a great month and Life is more than good
