July 18 – After
breakfast we went out to pick berries for a bit. It was a lot better going in the morning
before the sun came over. We didn’t pick
as many as I had to get home to shower and report to Ferry Hill by noon. I had a little mishap and slid down the
embankment. I was more worried about spilling
my berries. I got several splinters in
my hand and think I’m going to have a nice bruise on my hip.
The first hour was
pretty slow today but I got to know Bob, the newest volunteer, a little
better. He visits Mt. Dora during the
winter dealing with antiques. The end of
the day was busier and new ranger Melissa went over a lot of stuff with
us. Then in 2 week she’ll have to go
over it again with the new camp hosts that take our place.
I made a short run
to Food Lion for some pie crusts so I could make some berry tarts when I got
home. There were pretty good! I put another pie bag of berries in the freezer.
After dinner I got
on the roof and cleaned the dirty gray streaks from the front top and then Bill
did the rest of the front. One of our
pre-leaving jobs out of the way.
Time to watch
TV. Dan’s on the episode of Graceland
tonight. Hope we can find him.
