Siena week 3

So this third week of my summer of service was somewhat interesting. On Monday and Tuesday, my usual ride to work was still indisposed, but my site coordinator was on campus for training both days so that worked in my favor. On Wednesday, I was able to return to my original form of transportation and I turned 20. So I guess I'm old now. I also went to a Whole Foods for first time ever. On Thursday I went to North Albany Academy elementary school for a presentation that my site supervisor and her husband were doing on the Underground Railroad. That night I had the best burger I've had in quite some time and then I went to a board meeting for the Underground Railroad History Project. The board meeting made me realize  how legit the organization is instead of just being a group of random people trying to do something worthwhile. On Friday I went on a walking tour of the area of Albany around my site and attended a meeting of the African American History project.

Over the weekend, neither of my room mates was here so I didn't sleep and I had access to a car. On Sunday I went to my site and met some of the Young Abolitionists- a group of local teens who take an interest in the history of the Underground Railroad and the 19th century in general.
