This is a blog posted by my teammate Jordan. Thought it was pretty funny.
So my team is crazy fun, and when we are all in this new journey
together we need to have some GOOD TIMES! Here are some tips of the
week we compiled!
1. Look both ways before you pee.
When avoiding the quite potent outhouse make sure no one is walking on the street below you when you are using the
jungle as your new bathroom. AWKWARD!
jungle as your new bathroom. AWKWARD!
2. Bring “Tony’s Seasoning” it makes everything taste better!
3. Donde esta El Bano? Does not work when the person you ask can’t just point to the bathroom.
I have no idea what they say when they just use words so I say OK and just start wandering around looking for a big
sign that says BANO!
4. What looks like “Mac and Cheese” may not always be, don’t assume because here it may be “Mac and Mayo!”
5. NEVER ASSUME!
When the Pastor’s kids volunteer to give you a look around and use the term “circle”, ALWAYS be prepared to NOT go
in a circle. Instead be prepared to go on a 2.5 hour hike up and down a mountain twice, walk through a river, get rained
on, climb back up to the house in the dark, do it all in sandals BUT have a crazy awesome time!
6. Setting up hammocks in the back of a moving truck is NEVER a bright idea!
Hypothetically, my hammock might slip when we hit a bump, and Sage and I will fall out on top of Jory in his hammock!
7.Don’t climb on something that takes too long to get down from, especially when kids are around!
Sage and I climbed up what looks like a wooden lifeguard stand to watch the kids play, when all of a
sudden we became huge targets for them! They would put this small football in this nasty nasty black water with really
gross stuff in it, and then try to throw it at us and hit us! P.S. sandals and water bottles work as great bats! Once we
got down though it was GAME ON! We got a couple good dodges and some throws in! Whatever brings them fun haha!

8. NEVER believe people when they say you will be HOT all year!
We are freezing to death in the mountains up here! Its low 40’s.
9. Last but not least you will always be having a good time with TEAM INCREASE!
