Chill is the best word to describe today. We woke up around 10:00 and were eventually ready to roll out to the wall around 11:40. We had three groups today: Kyle and John going to Drive by for one...

Today was started off with Maxime singing Kyle’s wake-up song in French to all the late sleepers, and breakfast tacos for a scrumptious meal. Then phase 2 of our day was commenced: Cleaning the barn, porch and vans. The kids were split into groups and all the work was done. The guides are quite happy for the cleanliness; it’s a nice change. Upon passing Kyle’s final check over we loaded up into the vans and headed to Winchestertonfieldville. Along the way the van I was in including Carson, Ellen, Peter, Gentry, Ian, Chris, Peyton, Maxime, and Ashley, had a very intense dance party to varying techno and dance songs. Those kids can move it like no other; it was an entertaining site to say the least. After a successful trip to Wal-Mart we stopped by the Ale8 Factory to get t-shirts and other memorabilia. With bags and bottles in hand we headed back to the cabin to change into swim suits and head to the reservoir. We are proud of Maddie for facing her fears and jumping off the medium cliff this trip, along with Chris for making it off all three jumps today. Another fun note, I’m happy to say that I made one of the dynos today after only missing it 3 or 4 times. For those that don’t know I literally cannot jump to save my life so this was momentous. Besides Franny thinking he busted his eardrum no injuries were obtained while jumping off the tall cliffs. The team has now left me at Miguel’s after a delicious meal of pizza and Ale8. They are off to shower and get all the mud off them from the reservoir. So I will conclude todays blog with hopes of lots of sends tomorrow! Goodnight everyone!
