Winter 5.0/ winter 5.0

Გამოქვეყნდა: 10.05.2021

Hello Hello! 😉

The last few weeks I have been very busy! We had many camps over the last weekends. 

Among them were the mother-daughter camp, the father-daughter camp, and the camp for horse lovers. 🐴

Among the activities, which mostly took place outdoors, were climbing on the climbing wall, the trust course in the forest, horseback rides, chilling by the campfire, show jumping, western riding, shooting, and much more. But the highlight is and remains the "Message on the Mountain". A devotion on a longhorn bull! You have to see that at least once! 🐂

It was sometimes cold outside and the snow is back today. 🌨 It's unbelievable that I have to pull out my winter jacket again in May! Welcome to Pennsylvania, where there are five winters. 😂

What else have I been up to? I went shooting again on Sunday! This time I shot a Smith & Wesson 460V! That was awesome! 😝 But I'm still in training.

On Tuesday, I had dinner with my host family again. This time we had something very special. We had venison! I usually only eat something like that at Christmas or something! But here, a lot of hunting is done, so you can find something like that in the freezer more often. 😉

On Thursday, we had another day of skill development. These days are always exciting because I learn a lot about this culture and get prepared for all sorts of things. This time, we had the "Survival Class" so that we are able to survive. 😜

Our starting situation was that we survived a plane crash in the mountains in the dead of winter and now we have to survive for 36 hours until someone finds us. What tools would you take with you? It's not that easy to determine the order of importance. 😅

After that, we were shown how to make a fire. The best way is to collect many branches and shape them into a cone. Put something highly combustible like dry leaves or straw from the side of the road inside.

Now let's move on to the topic of animals: I saw a wild chipmunk for the first time in the past few days and immediately thought of the movie "Alvin and the Chipmunks". Do you know the movie? The chipmunk looks a bit like Alvin. 🐿😂

We have new baby animals at the ranch again! Among them are new foals, a baby guinea pig, and beagle puppies! So cute. 🥰 By the way, they are with my host family. Tonight, I also took care of the little rascals. Of course, I couldn't resist cuddling with Coco, the cat. 🐈☺️

The summer camps are getting closer and we still need more staff for the summer!

That's it for this update! 

See you soon 🙃

But the highlight is and remains the 'message on the mountain'. A devotion on a longhorn bull! You have to have seen that once! 🐂 

It was sometimes also cold outside and the snow came again today. 🌨 It's unbelievable that I have to break out my winter jacket again in May! Welcome to Pennsylvania, there are five winters. 😂

What else have I been up to? I went shooting again on Sunday! This time I shot a Smith & Wesson 460V! That went bang! 😝 But I am still in training.

On Tuesday, I had dinner with my advisor family again. This time we had something really fine. We had deer! I usually eat something like that only at Christmas or something! But here we hunt a lot, so you have something like that in the freezer more often. 😉

On Thursday we had again skill development day. These days are always exciting because I learn a lot about this culture and get prepared for anything. 

This time we had the 'survival' class so we can be survivors. 😜 Our starting situation was that we survived a plane crash in the mountains in the dead of winter and now we have to survive 36 hours until someone finds us. What tools would you take with you? Not so easy to put in order of importance. 😅

After that, we were shown how to make fire. The best way is to collect many branches and form them into a cone shape. In it you put something quickly combustible like dry leaves or straw on the side of the road.

Now we come to the topic of animals: I have seen the last few days for the first time a wild chipmunk and had to think directly of the movie 'Alvin and the Chipmunks'. Do you know the movie? The chipmunk already looks a bit like Alvin. 🐿😂 

We have new baby animals at the ranch again! Among them are new foals, a baby guinea pig and beagle puppies! Soo cute 🥰 They are with my advisor family by the way. I helped watch over the little rascals tonight. Of course I couldn't pass up cuddling with Coco the cat either. 🐈☺️ 

Summer camps are getting closer and closer and we still need more staff for the summer!
