Wait, it's over?! Part Duex

Hey again!
Let us continue on this journey of saying goodbye! So, I know you guys have seen a bunch of pictures of my first round that was in Arizona, but here is one more!
 
This was taken on our last day in Arizona, where we got to set fire to all the material that we collected off the beach. And of course, we set it off in style with some bows and arrows! I will not get into all of the other weapons that they made while I was off doing paperwork. You know who you are, shut it down.
 
Next up, is second round where we were located in the lovely Denver, Colorado doing taxes:
 
This by far had to be the project that I was most nervous about, but at the end of it I learned the absolute most out of my eight rounds. Such a great sponsor that is doing amazing work for the community, I couldn't be prouder that I got an opportunity to serve with the Piton Foundation. And, now for forever more, I can do taxes! But please, don't ask me to.
 
 
 
And on we go to third round:

 
I have always wanted a school project and my wish was granted to me this round, as my team and I got to work at a school in rural Colorado. This round definitely had to be my toughest, but out of all the rounds I had, this one grew me the most as a leader. And for that, I am forever grateful to it.
 
And last, but not least, my fourth round:
 

I couldn't have asked for a better way to leave my Ameri-life. Great sponosor, team, community, housing, and campers. Everything that needed to go right, went that way (and naturally we had some wrongs too). There is not enough good things that I can say about the J. Austin White Cultural Center in Arkansas, so I am going to quit while I am ahead!
 
And that rounds up, my last four projects in AmeriCorps! But wait...there is still more.
