Today we completed the Big Tree/Salt Marsh Observation deck and walkway in addition to the tower boardwalk completed earlier.  Not bad for 1 month at the refuge.  A serious commitment by refuge staff and other volunteers has made it possible.  Last week we worked 6 days and 4 days this week to make it happen.  The refuge acting manager and his significant other stopped by and helped out during a weekend afternoon.  The members of the project team all seem to share the feeling of accomplishment for a job well done.   As we were finishing project cleanup we had the 1^st visitor to enjoy the view from the new deck.  A heart warming experience.
