Snow Day!

This past week has been a cold one! We got 4 inches of snow yesterday, which around here is enough to stop everything because they don't have plow trucks to come out and take care of it like we do in Maine! It was okay with us though, because we got the afternoon off and went to the laundromat to finally do some much needed laundry! It was a fun adventure, and took forever, because we had to drive so slow. As you can guess, our work days with Wolf River Conservancy were cancelled too, so we couldn't work on the trail at all this week :( Instead we were back at ArkWings doing more painting and cutting ivy off of trees with loppers, which are now my least favorite tool ever, because they KILL my arms and weak little wrists! My arms are STILL sore two days later! Crazy! We have been continuing to work out at Rhodes College, it is so much more convenient than trying to work out in our little livingroom or running outside in the freezing cold! Today we also started making some bat houses, since they love bats down here 'cause they eat all the mosquitoes...ewww! The bat houses are pretty cool actually (I'll try to remember to take a picture tomorrow) because they are so stinkin' skinny! It is hard to believe that about 200 bats will be able to live in there this spring...guess they like to cuddle! I have just noticed that I am kinda all over the place with my blog and using lots of exclamation points tonight, which is partly due to the fact that I am drinking my traditional white chocolate mocha latte and partially because I am trying to remember and catch y'all up with everything we have been doing this week...haha
Anyways, love and miss everyone of y'all so much! I am super excited for my visitors (Nate and Lynelle) to be coming soon! And good news...the weather is supposed to be getting warmer! Woohoo! Nellie, it might be up in the 50-60s while you are here!!
