A full summer schedule...

I booked my flights last night and the reality of just how crammed my schedule is going to be has settled in. The cost of flying was also a cold reminder. I'm not exactly sure how I plan to continue to pay for college expenses after already spending 1/3 of my pay on getting out to California, but I have faith in God that it will all work out. Anyways, let me lay out this crazy schedule for you.

• May 12th, I will preform in the concert band for the graduating Seniors that wish to be gone just as much the rest of us after a long and grueling school year. Once my duty is served in the band, I will out of SAU as fast as humanly possible. Having to stay an extra day on campus is not ideal by any means. 
• Arriving in Pentwater, I have four days until my flight for California departs, May 16th. In that short period of time I must go shopping for summer work cloths and hopefully finish packing up my room.
• Once I arrive in California at 3:32PM on May 16th, as my itinerary claims, I will then slump into a car for a two hour drive to California City. 
• The desert rays will be enjoyed with family and friends not seen for far to long. On May 20th I get back into the car for a four hour drive to Sequoia National Forrest and will be promptly dropped off with people I don't know and a job that will start the next day.
• Work at Sequoia will continue until August 27th.
• After enjoying several months working, making new friends, and exploring a National Forrest, I will then be picked up once again by my father, step mother, and little sister on August 28th or the 27th depending on the circumstances.
• After spending a few more precious days in California City, I will be dropped back off at LAX on September 1st in order to fly back to Grand Rapids Michigan. 
• On September 5th I will move into Village D for another year at SAU and will start classes the next day.  

So there it is, my summer schedule. Crazy, crammed, and exciting summer. Also, summer training begins tonight at 6, so be expecting another post soon! Thank you for being interested in this exciting adventure God is taking me on. One other note, once I am settled in Sequoia I hope to write at least every week and will hopefully have pictures to share with you all.
