Da Fish Pond

By far, the fish pond at he'eia is great to work at. Besides my encounters with the gecko or lizard, I really am enjoying the limited time we have there. I love hearing all the stories our site managers have told us. The whole time they were telling the stories, I would zone out and picture the description they give us. Which by the time I came to reality, it felt like I took a trip back into time when things were all beautiful and natural. It gives you the thought, that everything little thing does have a reason behind it. I entirely enjoyed the time we move the pohaku from one end of the pond to the next on a barge. Even though everyone liked the walk in the water, I personally enjoyed strengthening the wall. Because in so many few days, months or years I can look back in time and tell whoeverI may be talking to at the time that I helped build up that part of the wall. It means a lot to me, I mean just to have the opportunity to work on that KAPU area is more than enough for me. Since being at the fish pond, it brings us all "closer together" which is sucah a good thing. Today we had a big load of pohaku and all of us formed a line to make the carrying a bit easier. Looking at all of us in my mind felt really good. For that second the thought popped in my head, it felt like we were really one big strong team. Well, as you all know Robert and I took that large pohaku and some how some way it slipped right on to my left foot, and down I went on that pointed coral. I just thought I put it up here, honestly npt trying to be mean towards Robert but just a cool remembrance. By the way Robert, my foot is perfectly fine, it just happened by reason. Im going to have to cut it right here because my eyes are starting to close while my fingers are still typing! haha.
