Waiting Game

So the first crew came in sunday. Since I am a first year ranger I could not recieve a crew on the first day. Monday, however, first years got crew. It was randomly chosen on who would get a crew. David robinson, will sadler, and alex schneider lucked out and all picked a crew up on monday. The people who did not get a crew had a ranger workday all day monday. We had to hike along this road and pick up trash with other rangers. I thought it was going to be a bad time, but it actually turned out to be pretty fun. We ended up just messing around, talking, and taking a break here and there. I played frisbee sunday night for 2.5 hours out on the villa lawn. It is a huge field with soft green grass. The sprinklers come on in sections so every thirty or so minutes we have to move the field further down. I was pretty beat, but it felt great to get out in run. The altitude got to me a little though.
Sunday morning i went on a run pretty early with will, alex, and thomas. It was my first run back from track. It wasn't to bad. We ran for about thirty minutes on this trail leading up into the back country. Horses were in free reign all over the place. Back to monday...We got off of our ranger work day around 11:30 and had the rest of the day off. I just chilled and messed around on base camp. I played frisbee again monday night and played a pretty intense game of basketball. After getting some exerxcise, I hit up the opening campfire around 8:45. It was pretty funny because the actors were still `tting use to their lines. I headed back and took a really hot shower then headed to the tent for the night. I started reading the book huckelberry fin. It's not a bad book so far. Today, tuesday, we got the day off. One of the other rangers from tulsa, David Osborn, and I might go into the town of raton or red river. It feels good to have a whole day off
