End of school

The school year is coming to an end very fast. I have my last day of class on Monday and then i have to deal with moving and evaluations. On Friday my group ran an activity called "The Barking Tree" and taught kids from 2nd to 7th grade about conifer and deciduous trees. We each researched a particular tree and informed the kids about the importance and uses of it. My tree was the western red cedar which is unique to the pacific northwest and has lots of cultural significance and uses with the Native Americans. The weather has been super nice here and in the 70s and 80s most days thus i have spending lots of time outside. I have also been trying to cover lots of hours at my job since i don't know if i will have one when i go back home. Im trying to pack lots of things in these next two weeks and hope to do some backpacking or camping.
