Day Cinco

Yesterday was pretty lame to start off with. And by lame I mean it was pretty damn boring. We didnt do much. I woke up and had breakfast. Then we went out to the work site to get some prep done for our projects. This was actually pretty important because without the prep we would be at a standstill come monday morning. Right now there is a group of kids out here from Touch The World. They all camp out for a week and learn basic construction techniques and then go on mission trips for 10 days. So right now we have them using all their new techniques to clear brush from a hillside. They work for about an hour and are completely whiped out. After working we came home for lunch. This is when my day started to pick up. We came back and ate at which time I decided that Jeff and I need to have a construction meeting in my office and ill grab the office supplies. Now when I say construction meeting I mean that we go into a different room where no one can find us so we will not be put to work. This is great becuase liz our site assistant who tries to put us to work does not know that we currently have all our projects done. Now when I say that we will be in "My Office" I mean that we are going to sneak out the back door and meet each other about 200 yards out front of the mission house which happens to be about 150 yards out into the middle of the ocean. Now when I say "Office Supplies" that means that I will go down to camp and grab the Kayak so we can go out to the island and check and see whats around. When we got out to the island we found a lot of conch shells where people dump them into the ocean to after they have the meat out of them. After we were done looking around for abotu 10 minutes we decided to come back....but just as we were about to head back I saw somthing gleaming out of the corner of my eye. what could this be....ah yes...it was an old rusty machete. Now I dont know how many of you have ever been in water and found a 2 foot long knife but believe me it is one of the coolest things in this world. I mean come on. Think about it. I got that machete which was a huge highlight of my trip and that has led to me hitting pretty much all inatimate objects with it....Which has led to about all the other highlights of my trip. I mean I was being circled by a small crab as I was exiting the water...I didnt know what to do because his scare tactics were working on me. I was so confused...but then I remembered... AH YES.. I am currently holding a 2 foot long knife. After that the crab was no longer. I know he prolly could have stayed alive but he started it. For all you readers out there I would suggest maybe filling up your tub with water tonight and placing you largest knife in the tub. Whoever walks past will undoubtly have one of the best days of their lives all because of you.

Thanks for reading.

Dont get fired for reading however....

Watch out your boss is right behind you.

Love
