Each May, Holden hosts high school youth groups from churchs around Washington State. They come in droves, not knowing much about Holden but with a ton of enthusiasm. Holden has a tradtion of pulling pranks and jokes for these kids as they come into the village. One year it was blind bus drivers and another it was a human avalange blocking the road. This year 3 of us set up a bus driver coffee stand about 2 miles from the village. Each bus would stop and we would serve coffe to the bus driver. Joeseph was our bicycle powered coffer maker operattor. Each time the bus stopped, I would yell at him to work harder, work harder.Sunday, May 3, 2009

My brother should be getting back from Holden today. I can't wait to hear his take on the pranks and Holden. My environmental ethics class got short-sheeted and gents wearing skirts/dresses during our month long winter stay oh so many years ago. Fun fun, indeed!
