Catching Up on the End of Second Round

So I know that I haven't written on here in a long time and I apologize to those of you who have gotten on to read something new when there wasn't anything. I am now halfway through my third round project. Which means that there is less than four months left in the program. I know its hard to believe right? I found out yesterday that my permanent team and I will be going back to LA for fourth round. I am not sure how I feel about this. I was kind of looking forward to going somewhere new and I am not looking forward to the heat but what can you do. I will know Monday or Tuesday what project I will be doing.

The end of our time in Tulsa was non eventful but rewarding. All in all my team completed about 3,240 tax returns and saved our clients over $600,000 in tax preparation fees. In all my team spent over 2,000 hours doing taxes! We left Tulsa the first week of March. The night we stayed in Goodland, KS was the first night in two months that I had slept on a bed. It was wonderful! Now don't get me wrong, the cots were not as bad as I thought they were going to be but nothing beats a real bed. Our sponsors took us out to dinner the last week we were there and they even cooked us dinner too!

During transition week besides having to do the debrief form Tulsa and the brief for the Denver Children's Home some of us played trampoline doge ball. It was a blast! The place was filled with large trampolines where you could jump or play. The Water unit also went roller blading at at a rink, which I have not done since middle school. A lot of of dress up as 70's 80's. Over all it was a fun going places and seeing friends on different teams.
