A tour of High Trails

I thought I'd finally take a second to show you all were I work. I took some pictures of were I live and now here are some pictures of where I work. Although, essentially they are the same place. I only have to walk about 3 mins to get to work. :)

Here is a picture of my cabin from last week. They are pretty standard. Some sleep 12 and others sleep 20. You get placed depending on how many kids you have. This one is pretty big for my 17 girls. One the first day the kids have to drag their luggage to the cabin and this one was pretty far a way. They hated it, but I told them that it was going to be the hardest thing they would do all week.


This is the door to the cabin. They are labeled in groups of animals. They are bird animals, mammals, and insects.

This is inside of the cabin with all of the bunks. They are pretty comfortable and I definitely prefer the wooden ones to the metal bunks because they don't make as much noise.

Here is the set up of my cabin rules and layers poster. The girls seem to like my decorations.

This is how I set up my bunk. I try to make it as homey as possible. :)
This is the view of walking from the cabin to the dinning hall.
On the way you pass the amphitheater. Usually you can see the mountains but this particular day there was this huge cloud that surrounded us. It was really weird and neat to think that I live at such a high elevation.
Here is our amphitheater up close. This is where we have campfire and skits on Thursday nights.

This is a picture of our dinning hall all set up ready for campers to arrive. That's Jake sitting at the table. He's making bead necklaces for the kids. The campers are obsessed with earning the beads during the week. It's crazy and funny.
Alright it's time to start getting ready for next week. This weekend was pretty low key especially compared to last weekend. Yesterday we just hung out in Big Bear and then got together with the other Edwards staff at night to play some games. We haven't seen them in a long time. It was good.
Next week I'm on single cabins again. It should be fun. It's a 5 day program so I'm excited to finally get to teach astronomy! Yeah! I want to bruff up in my stars using my book I got from John.

P.S.- I found out on Friday that I made it as one of the 3 Line Dancing instructors. They must have liked my tryout. :) I'll let you know how my first class goes. I'll most likely be teaching the maccarina, the hitch hiker, and thriller.
