Back to College - Tennessee Volunteers

No, not the UT Volunteers.  We're on Hiwassee College campus for five days doing some volunteer work here in Madisonville, TN.  We joined NOMADS, an RV group affiliated with the Methodist Church that does various projects around the country.  That's how we learned about the need here on this small college campus.  We're weeding, painting, raking, and generally sprucing up the place in preparation for the Fall Semester.  The college set up electric, water, and sewer sites for the NOMADS, so there's no overnight cost, and they even feed us in the cafeteria!  The President had a cookout for the college staff at his home and we got to go to that too.  Buddy is lovin' romping on this beautiful, rolling campus.  Because school is not in session yet, we're able to let him off-leash when we go walking.  Ahhh, freedom.
