How were you challenged today?
10/16/02
I think my biggest challenge was hiking up here, because you use a lot of leg muscles and also I think it was difficult because I had a heavy backpack on, and that I have never been hiking before. I also think another challenge was eating the food, it is a challenge for me because I have never aet a tortilla w/ pb&j. I think the challenges I did today are good because I have never done any of it before, so I was able to do something different in my life.

I hear…
I hear airplances going by and the wind blowing.
