I got to the Folk School yesterday and I successfully avoided getting lost in Georgia! So, that's a bonus! However, I almost drove off the road because I was looking at the beautiful scenery. I am not used to curvey mountainous roads.
I met the four other lady-girls I will be working with. I'm the youngest and the oldest one is a grandma. I'm in a room with two girls.
Today was my first day of work. This week I am scheduled to work with my roommates actually. So we're bonding over work duties...but I still think we should open up a trust circle.
We did a variety of tasks from potting seeds to raking gravel in a zen garden to getting wet in the rain. It's pretty damp here which creates this beautiful mist on the mountains and everything is so lush and green. I will have to post pictures soon...when I take some.
Also, I already got mail! From one of my blacksmith instructors, but that means I know my mailing address:
