Towards the end of November, all of the guys (Johnny, Josh Bruce, Josh Markland, Zach Parish, Dan Strosky and Brian Alonzo) spent a little over a week somewhere in the middle of the woods, main reason being – they are surrounded 24/7 by 26 outspoken (mostly) single women… time to get away. Yikes! Good for them.
But, it was only fair that a couple of us girls got to go on our own little adventure, to a place we like to call Kanachaburi Farm. Myself, Tara Bruce, Ashley Johnson and Shanda Dodd got a little taste of the “simple life”…

5th and 6th grade English classes
In the afternoons, after a hard half-day’s work in the field, we take it into the classroom to educate the local 10 year-olds on how to speak English.
