FINALLY something exciting!

hellooooo!
this is just a quick update with some of the exciting stuff that's happened here this week!

-scary but exciting none the less-
the truck behind us was passing a car on the highway and another car came right out from a blind corner and didn't stop at the stop sign almost causing a head on collision! It was so scary to see happening behind us but luckily our driver reacted super fast and managed to avoid the car! He did however flatten a highway sign... I tried to convince everyone to take it with us but no one went for that...

Jake and Aly made it up to Fredericton yesterday with a new crew and they're doing REALLY awesome! and really enjoying their new foreman and crew! It's super sweet, hopefully they'll actually get some good days to make up for the junk they went through last week!

Luckily they have decided to let us stop working everyday at 4 instead of planting 6-6, it means a couple less trays but since we're working 6 days a week with only 1 day off we should make more anyways.
Nick and I are line-planting basically from now on because we both kind of feel done with the whole treeplanting thing hahah, classic end of the season "I wanna go home" feeling I guess.

Still looking out for a moose! we're heading out to a new site tomorrow so we'll have a whole new set of tree lines to search!
Hopefully we'll have much more exciting news to update!
Miss you guys and be home soon!
Heather and Nick
