Today is our official day off. . . and it relentlessly rained.    It seemed that everybody was stuck in the mud or avoiding being stuck in the mud.  Students spent the day having a leisurely breakfast and running by Janet’s site to see how the strawbales survived the storm.  There is around 3/8″ of water in standing on the Studio floor, however the strawbales are safe from water damage at the moment.  Another few students drove around the reservation and took a few pictures of sites along the way.  Our day off is continuing with a nacho/superbowl party to be followed by a zombie movie.

There are 6-7 dogs in the house along with  fiance & baby & wife who are visiting for the weekend.  A small group of students returned from helping out with the Special Olympics this weekend in SLC, so we’re back to a full house and work crew.  They were sad to have missed the productive days we’ve had and are ready to be back on site.
