Service for a Hospital...and a Future Eagle.

I was invited to participate in an outdoor service project. It turned out to be an Eagle Scout project, in which a bunch of local college kids came to help plant shrubs on the grounds of a local hospital. It was slow going at first, as we tried to learn what we needed to do. But once we got our instructions, we went to work. One of my favorite things about service projects is that moment (or several moments) when I look around and notice the tremendous progress that was made. That was fulfilling, and inspiring. We worked for a few hours, and we got the designated grounds mostly covered with the new shrubs! I am grateful for a successful Eagle Scout project. Also, I had fun hanging out with friends in the process. :)
