Not Much of a Week

The past week has been one of those that make you wish you had not promised yourself that you would be more diligent at keeping your blog up to date. At work, we have been giving the GED test. 29 students attempted it this time. We finished on Thursday and put them in the mail on Friday. Then we went on lock down. The unit should be down for about two weeks. We have these lock downs twice a year. The offenders are taken to the gym with all of their belongings. Guards then go through everything to make sure that the offenders do not ave any contraband. While that is happening, other guards are searching their cells. They will also search all other area on the unit. I can expect the guards to come into my office and go through all of my cabinets, files, and my desk. On a unit with 4,100 offenders, you can see why that can take a couple of week. The teachers get bored after a few days. I usually almost get my paperwork caught up.

Saturday Anita and I went to the funeral of one of my co-worker's mother. Sunday was church and Sunday afternoon I was in Tyler for a Vibrant Church Initiative. It i a group that is trying tot develop a  plan for the future direction of our church. We meet once a month for about four hour for training.

I did get a new trail cam this weekend. I put it out this afternoon. This one will actually record audio. I am very curious to heard what sounds are happening in the woods when I am not around. Maybe if I can not film Big Foot, I can record his calls.

Friday we had a rainstorm. Afterward, the whole world turned orange. I guess it was just a combination of light angles and clouds, but is was strange. take a look at the trail cam shot. That is the way it looked.
