My first day at Four Corners was awesome. My first impression was of the weather. It is HOT! not the kind of humid heat back in Virginia, but instead a dusty dry heat. The wildlife is just as interesting. I've seen wild dogs, prairie dogs, and lizards. Maybe I'll see a cool snake or spider. The terrain is also much different from home. Instead of hills and green forests, there really isn't much here. There's mostly sand, and towering mountains and cliffs. It's quite a pretty sight. My team and I are working on an add on to our family's house. We spent most of the day fixing measurements of the previous group. We met with the family a couple of times, and got to talk to the homeowner's granddaughter. Tomorrow we will begin working on the walls now that we finished the roof and got everything square. I can't wait till tomorrow! I know it will be even more awesome than today. That's all for now!
