Thursday, June 2, 2011 - Rest Day!

Seemed like all the preparation effort has taken it’s toll on us. We crashed today, much like after we’ve facilitated a very intense workshop or a particularly grueling job. Spent the day reading, watching movies and generally relaxing as much as possible. Still seems like a lot of traffic going in and out, and where we are situated, we hear them coming and going, even though it’s a loop around the campground. Maintenance did come out a work on the spigot, and thought they had if fixed, but it didn’t last long. Managed to fill the water buckets once before it gave out. They came out again, worked on it some more, and again, it worked for about two minutes before giving up the ghost. Glad I got water in the drum for the horses! Very hot today, and the horses are drinking a lot because of it. No surprise, where we believed we were at the right latitude for the calender to keep us in the 70’s, they’re having record heat in the 90’s, coming close to 100, earlier than they’ve had since records have been kept. Figures. Hoping to find shade on the trails tomorrow!
