The idea is simple enough. Volunteer for a good cause (X12). I would want to do more but with my schedule, it hasn't been easy. Still, it's no excuse.
Last Sunday (10/19/08) I did volunteer work by helping my church with the annual CROP (Communities Responding to Overcome Poverty) walk. It's a six mile walk to raise money and help feed the hungry. I was in charge of putting up the route signs, running around in case anyone needed help, and getting the signs down. Sadly, I didn't get the chance to walk (though I did probably more than two miles getting those signs up and down).
The day was very nice for a walk and, though it was hard work, I think it was a success.Poor dad got "volunteered" to help as crossing guard.
He probably didn't expect to spend his Sunday this way, but he worked just as hard as the rest of us. Gotta give him props for that.
