Interesting thing fact for work...

This summer I spent a couple of weeks in Trinidad. While there, I was digging holes for septic tanks. It was part of a volunteer program that is similar to habitat for humanity. I dug a large hole with a group of four people (including myself). The hole was big enough to fit all of us in it when we were done (standing!). It rained half the time we were working and we spent a large portion of our time, re- digging the holes and draining buckets of water. When we completed and installed the tank, we were done! It was super rewarding because the residents of the homes that were having bathrooms added to them, were there through the entire process. They shared stories of their lives and island history that was very interesting and entertaining.
