Week Two - 2/23/08

I worked on Saturday (2/23/08) from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Total Hours Worked: 16 Hours

This week I drew a picture for a children's brochure about the old bathhouse that was near the cliff house. I really liked how my picture turned out and my mentor was very impressed. Then I read about the presidio and all the history that around it, so that was informative to say the least. It was raining and stormy as well so I didn't get to go for a walk, maybe next week i'll be able to go for one.

Week One - 2/9/08


I worked on Saturday (2/9/08) from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Total Hours Worked: 8 Hours

Well today was my first day at the presidio. I had lots of fun learning about the presidio and all its history. Like i never knew that on crissy field had an actually tarmac runway and was like an actually air port. All day me and the other intern, drew, walked around crissy field and he told me all about the different buildings. It was a VERY nice day that day so it was nice and there were alot of other people out that day. After our walk around presidio he told me about this presentation on the 1915's world fair that was going on in the officers club. So went and watched that and I learned a lot about how the worlds fair was advertised to the public in the 1900's. I would really like to do some more research about the 1915 world fair because this presentation somehow sparked my mind and i need to learn more about it.

Then they gave me this cool hat (above) and I talked with the other intern and my mentor about the project I'm going to be working on. Which got changed from doing a project about global warming to working on brochures on different things around the presidio. So far i'm happy with my internship
