Well we FINALLY got our projects for Round 3 which will begin on March 15 and end on May 7. I will be in Boulder, CO working with the City of Boulder, Open Space and Mountain Parks.

It is bitter-sweet for me.. Working outdoors all day in the mountains eradicating weeds, building trails and digging ditches for irrigation lines is not exactly my cup of tea. And I'm really bummed that I didn't get Denver. How I am the only one from my current team to get Boulder when countless other people put it higher on their list baffles me, but I love, love, LOVE my new team. There will be twelve of us and it is a super motivated and positive bunch. Plus we will get to live in the Ameri-mansion! It is supposedly the nicest accommodations that AmeriCorps has to offer. Someone donated several acres and a very nice house in downtown Boulder to AmeriCorps many years ago. The location is amazing and only 30 minutes out of Denver. AND Southwest Airlines is running a deal right now for tickets between San Diego and Denver for only $69! Very cool. I need to work out the details but I will definitely be able to come home for a long weekend sometime during Round 3!
But, TAXES...now that is going about the same. Things have really slowed down here. And we have several long breaks at work. Which gives me plenty of time to play on the internet and research rather pointless things..But I am soaking it in before having to be outside ALL the time in Boulder.
Oh and my new team will still be Water 1 (because I have the same Team Leader). They are: Daniel (TL), Butts, Nicole, Megan, Bryan, Michelle, Avi, Max, Danielle (my roomie), Kelly, Ashley, and Jocie. I know that means nothing to you all, but they are a bunch of awesome people!
