Well I am on day three down here in the Dominican Republic and somehow my body is still functioning. I won’t lie … I am not someone that partakes in much physical labor. It’s not that I don’t enjoy it … well ok, I don’t, but I am loving every second of it down here. :)

The walls were quite dirty to begin with but once we were finished everything looked fresh and new! If only we could see the looks on the students faces when they return to the newly painted walls. I am sure they’ll enjoy it since they are some of the most appreciative people I’ve ever met.
