Ameriblog 4.4
Today is Easter and I laid out for about an hour and a half tanning. It’s crazy to think just two years ago, I was stuck on the MegaBus for 10 hours because of a blizzard on Good Friday. My birthday was on Good Friday this year, and my team and I went to the beach. What a change! We had Friday off of work, so we decided to go down to Rehobeth Beach about 30 minutes from our estuary. It was a little cooler and windier by the ocean, but it was a great sunny day. We walked around on the board walk, sat on the beach and had some drinks. Later on when we got home, Zack, Meaghan, Caleb and I went out to Smither’s, basically the only cool bar in Dover…and they have karaoke on Fridays…so I was a happy birthday girl.
April 1st I got an early birthday present…poison ivy. Most of my team had already gotten it and I thought I had dodged the ivy bullet. On Tuesday, we did some invasive removal, so I must have made contact with it then. I have it on both of my forearms; big, ugly and blistering. I think I have it under control, I hope it doesn’t spread.
It rained for most of the week here. On Monday, we started a painting project in the DNERR offices and finished it on Tuesday. However on Tuesday morning Zack, Sadie, Maria, Caleb, and I went out in the rain to some English Ivy removal. This is when I think I got the poison ivy, but I also had a rain slicker, a sweat shirt, and a long sleeve tee on, so I am still a little bewildered on how I got it on my arms.
The rain stopped by Wednesday morning, and for the next two days we worked on projects around the St. Jones campus in Dover and at Blackbird. On Thursday up at Blackbird, Sadie, Zack, Meaghan, Caleb and I planted about 50 trees and bushes.
