Little Spike, Big Spike

Our mini spike has finished, and it was a blast. There were some hard times for me, but the good times were too many to consider this project bad. We worked in a children's museum. Itvwas great, the museum was inside a mall in Coralville IA. On breaks we could stretch out by walking around in the mall. On the last day the snow decided to come down really thick. Some of the team went out to play in it. I stayed in the mall, I don't want to play in the snow when I don't have the right stuff. Our team painted, and made a bunch of different gift bags. I was sad when we had to leave, the museum was way cool. It had flight simulators, and a small train exhibit, and a whole bunch of other cool stuff. Our first day back on campus from our mini spike was busy. The team did a debrief, then did some PT to make up for missing yesterday's. After the game of ultimate frisbe, we had disaster training all day. I didn't get any actual rest until 7, because once training was over each team was given clues to figure out where our first spike will be. I had no idea what was going on, I heard one thing, and then everybody in the team started running. I was confused. Then I heard one of my team memberes shout muster spot when i asked where they were going now. They said muster spot. That is where we found out where we will be going. I'm headed to Illinois in a week and a half, and I won't be back till April!! I look forward to it, we will be camping in tents under the stars. That will be awesome!!!
