  Mon.  July 12,  2004 & nbsp;  Today I set up bunk- beds with Jesse,
 Julliet,  Kelsie ( sp?  Kansas,  and Reba. nbsp;
 It shocked me to see how the Indians live. nbsp;  The homes were tiny,  dirty,  smelly,  but they were still happy people,
 and they were grateful and shared popsicles ( yum!  with us. nbsp;  I loved meeting all the kids there. nbsp;
 One of the little girl's name was Arie. nbsp;  ( Air- E) nbsp;
 How precious is that? nbsp;  & nbsp;  After we got back,  we all ate lunch,
 and then when Joel was taking a nap,  Allie,  Me,  Steven,  and Kirby decided to put shaving cream on his face. nbsp;
 It was actually all Steven and Kirby's idea,  but they were too chicken to actually do it,  so I had to. nbsp;  Well,  I sprayed the shaving cream on his face,
 and then he woke up,  and I thought that he was gonna' wash it off,  so we all ran back to Shelem,  and while i was running,  I look behind me and there he was. nbsp;
 I don't think i've run that fast in my life. nbsp;  We made it to Shelem,  and i went in the bathroom. nbsp;  When i&
nbsp;  finally came out and was washing my hands,  Joel runs up behind me and gets peanut butter all over my face,  neck,  and hair. nbsp;
 But it was okay,  b/ c i got him first,  so we made a pact not to prank eachother anymore. nbsp;  &
nbsp;  Like 10 minutes after that,  we all got in the Re- member busses and were off to tour Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, nbsp;  the Red Cloud cemetary,
 a catholic church/ school, nbsp;  and a museum. nbsp;  All the while,
 Bertha was telling us stories. nbsp;  Well,  she said they were true,  but they weren't. nbsp;
 She said she fell in love with a boy that was 2 years younger than her,  and she didn't find out until they were almost married. nbsp;  She also told us that her grandma offered her 1 million dollars to get married when she was 18. nbsp;  I do not like Bertha.
nbsp;  Yeh,  and then when we were on the bus,  Joel's eyes were all screwed up so he was not in a very good mood,  and then Derket ( sp?
 put sunscreen in his hair. nbsp;  It was sooo funny. nbsp;  When we got back to Shetek,  we had dinner,
 Roses and Thorns,  and Bible Study. nbsp; nbsp;  Michael Loadholt decided we should have bible study on the top of the little mountain/ hill thingy.
nbsp;  Well,  there are tons of cacti,  and other creatures living on that stuff,  so I got a cactus stuck in my butt when I sat down. nbsp;
 Needless to say,  Liz was not a very happy camper. nbsp;  After that we all took showers ( very cold i might add)  and sang songs and went to bed.
