So Wednesday was like any other Wednesday on this particular trip. Some of the shine has rubbed off of the trip and the boys are dragging just a bit. It does not help that we have had a mild stomach bug making the rounds. To this point we have had 3 boys affected and hopefully it stops there. It has not hampered much and has been done in about 12-18 hours.
The 4th grade workers are hard at work on the Super Hero day which will culminate on Friday at the Mission with a Super Hero field trip to battle the Villains. Our boys are helping play the role of the bad guys and have been working with the kids to create their character and super powers. It sounds as if it will be a bunch of fun for them. After they are done (around Noon) we will take off for our Ranger led hike at Glacier National Park.
The 5th and 6th graders have been doing their normal work and our boys have been a huge help in keeping individuals on task, helping with reading recovery.
Last night we had pizza, played cards and many of the boys continued whittling on their walking sticks. I am not sure we have developed a solution for transporting those home. The weather has gotten much cooler and we drove in this morning in a thick fog. It has since cleared up but it will not get much warmer than 60 degrees.
Tonight we will start wrapping our brains around cleaning up, packing and getting ready for the journey home on Saturday morning. These guys don't seem to be homesick at all, which is a little unique. They have worked hard and gotten along very well despite the different interests and personalities.
It so far has been another successful trip.
