Christmas Is Almost Here!!!

Well since it's Christmas Break, everyone was busy so no one had a chance to get out and do some work on the trail. So no actually work has been done other than the hardening of the dirt that we need to move at the crossing! I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year!!

Saturday Work Days

Well this Saturday we went out and worked for 5 hours straight. We managed to clean a lot of the trail up and fix minor imperfections. My senior project is still on hold due to the dirt not being compact enough. I will go out next time and check to see when I believe we can resume working. Till then I will continue to volunteer.

Градот го уништи

For those of you can not read Macedonian, my title means "The City Ruined It!". I forgot my blog last week and a lot has happened since. The city provided us with the pipe we needed, but without telling my mentor or I dropped it into the middle of our crossing ruining all the work we have done so far. Now we have to wait for the dirt to get hard enough to bring the heavy machinery down there to fix the whole site. 

Since we can not work on my portion of the project right now, they began working on the actual trails. I have volunteered to help and I still go out Tuesdays and Fridays. I even picked up a sweet souvenir, a bad case of poison ivy!!
