Very productive week of farm work.

Dirt work to solve drainage issues and fencing to keep the animals safe!

“Keep up the good work”

Outside the Box students are killing it out there. They learn, they take on, they succeed. What a pleasure to be a part of that. We are thankful for the help and proud of growth.

“So easy a child could do it”

Remember that phrase—because children and adults are two vastly different minds.

Often adults can resort to easier lives than children. I bet if you try hard to remember life as a kid you can remember how difficult life before “control” used to be.

At the same time a child is more “challenge accepting”. Things you hear more from kids than adults are:
“Can I try!”
“Why?”
“What if we tried…?”
“How come?”
“Why not?”
“I have an idea!”
“Can I see?”
Etc.

Kids are not adults but adults can be kids. A kid asked why you don’t see augers for excavators [at the rental store]. It’s because there would have to be a special coupler attachment. Then he asked if one could be made.

It’s me. I’m that 31 year old kid.

After 10 years of excavator experience, it’s still very satisfying to pick up and maneuver heavy objects.

Anyway, we are replacing a broken septic lid here.
