The sun is set, the breeze is back and half of us have showered while the other half of us still smell like goat pooo.  Taking a little time before devotion around the "tent city" is a good idea.  There are loud amounts of chatter, and the air smells of aerosol bug spray, sweet shampoo, oreos (don't tell the Overlook staff!) and gatorade.

Today was full day to say the least.  Building rock walls (using boulders mind you) for Llamas to go from a 200sq foot "apartment" hut living to an over 2000 sq foot lavish grazing yard (photos included), to scooping a HUGE MOUND of poo into the bucket of a tractor made the day interesting to say the least.  We had a large crew working with fencing, post pushers, wire cutters, hammers and pins to secure the fencing to the posts for none other than, the Llamas.

The education piece, offered by Heifer has been saturated with really great info with an emphasis on saturated meaning, by the time our 7pm ed. time came, we entered the "loopy" phase of the day and basically we were toast.  

The group is crowded 'round old picnic tables while the sky, still lit with lavender colored clouds with hints of pink, hover over the twilight.  Josh Ransom begins our evening devotion by sharing with us a few passages of scripture that are meaningful to him.
Ending with the whisper of the wind...
