On Monday we had our work hours complete so we decided to visit some of the museums and other tourist sites around Detroit. first, we went to the DIA or the Detroit Institute of Art, this art institution was really cool to go walk around in visited many wings showing different time periods of different countries, religions, and cultures. My favorite part of the DIA was a car exhibit showing Detroit-made cars from the 1950's all the way to 2017 with many rare and expensive cars. then we went to the Henry Ford Museum where we visited the Greenfield village and the actual museum. this experience was really cool looking at houses owned by Ford, Eddison, and the Wright brothers. there were also many cool exhibits like the Lincoln chair and multiple presidential cars including Kennedys.

  Blog 8  5/18/22 Today we worked with the land manager John Solo and helped him with some of his daily tasks. We helped him with multiplep tasks. We srarted by loading wood into a trailer so he could bring it down to one of the resturants the farm supplies. This task took us a little while as it was a large trailor. Then we helped him spread minerals around multiple areas of the property to help the deer grow bigger and also help their antler size increase. We went to multiple different sites around the property and sister porperties to drop and spread these minerals. During this we got to ride on ATV’s to be able to reach areas more in the woods and not acsessable by road.  Today:10 Hours  Total: 80 Hours

George and Hank went and split logs and then proceeded to stack the wood. Connor and I had to shovel dirt into the back of a John deer Alligator and drove it over to an area that was recently paved and had to fill in the sides so they would be able to plant grass all the way up to the road. After lunch, we went over to the Co-op farm to work with farmer Jim again and helped him out with a couple little projects he needed to be done around the farm.  Today:10 Hours  Total: 90 Hours

After lunch, we went to one of the neighboring properties who is a part of the land we are working on to do some more landscaping near one of their houses. We had to dig out around the house and then stack rocks around the outside. With is most of it with mulch and then put sand in front of the walkways. We then put stones on the sand to complete the walkway. Finally, we cleaned up the area to make it look presentable. Today:10 Hours  Total: 70 Hours
