Unit Life: I like my unit a lot. We get along very well without much effort; however, we aren't as close as we could (or maybe should) be. I know that I contribute to that just as much as anyone else does, and that people find myself and the things that I do just as weird and annoying as I find the things that they do weird and annoying.

I enjoy the work too, I like doing a variety of things. In a typical week, I will help with maintenance, recreation, the science center, and go on a trail patrol all in five days!

From my work community at the BLM to the community at the soup kitchen where I volunteer on my days off, I feel like I am a useful part of it. I enjoy the occasional days that I work at the Downtown Soup Kitchen. It is a nice change of pace; and the people there are friendly. I enjoy the opportunity of serving others as Jesus did.
