Last blog in AmeriCorps!

So now that I am home, I thought that I would add the rest of my pictures from the last project. Unfortunately, I was not allowed to take any pictures of the kids at Operation Purple Camp, so I did not take any pictures of the camp.

Lauren and Charlotte- it took two people to get around this really big tree!


We did the Mile Incline in Manitou Springs, CO, which was really neat.

It took me two hours to get up...

The view was well worth it though!

You can even see Kansas!

Lydia, me, Lauren and KC at the top of the incline

We went to Red Rocks Ampitheater and saw Death Cab for Cutie. It was an amazing concert!

And this concert concludes my journeys in AmeriCorps. I am now starting to get ready for college in the fall and will be leaving August 27th to go up to Maine!

Back in Denver

Now I am back from Operation Camp and am almost done with AmeriCorps- 5 days left! Now, I am just packing and getting ready to go home. I am taking the train back, so I will be back this Saturday and am totally excited!
Today, we did a service project, which included pulling invasive species all morning! It was hard work and the last project in AmeriCorps.
