Entry - October 3, 1936

7.00 P.M. Did not have to work today because of moving tomorrow. Spent most of the day washing up some clothes and packing up. Said goodbye to all of my friends and buddys and otherwise.

I've kind of got mixed feelings here. This adventure is coming to an end which is a bit sad. Glacier National Park has been a fun place to explore and hanging out with Robert every day has been interesting. The anticipation of the next adventure is exciting though. I get the feeling Robert is ready for the next thing. After all, he has been there sleeping in a tent or outside for four months now. It's starting to get cold as well. I took a look at the weather forecast for today (2015). It is for snow showers.

The CCC program is more than three years old at this point. Enrollment is at about 350,000 and more than 1,000,000 have been though it. When you consider the regular Army only had 125,000 enlisted men, this was really quite a project for them to manage.
