Alright, well I thought I would give everyone an update as to what I've been up to the last couple of weeks. Since I last posted, I've been in the following Hy-Vee's:
(I'm sorry but I am too lazy to go steal the pictures of all of them off of Hy-Vee's website)
Brookings, SD
Watertown, SD
Austin, MN
Winona, MN
Marshall, MN
Charles City, IA
Cedar Rapids, IA #3
Cedar Rapids, iA #7
Cedar Rapids Hy-Vee Drug Store, iA #5
In addition to that, I've been in and out of the corporate office (very briefly) in West DesMoines a times, and I've been down to the Chariton distribution center a few times. I still am really enjoying the internship, but until last week it was starting to drag a tiny bit. I was in all those little towns, and that meant that every day I would have to relocate. So I would go to work at 7 am, finish work at 6pm and THEN have to go figure out where I was going to sleep that night. Thankfully last week I was in Cedar Rapids, so we stayed in the same hotel all week with the other interns. This week I am in the Quad Cities. I am hoping we can all stay at the Sheridan in downtown Rock Island, if not we are going to try for Jumers or the Airport Holiday Inn. I might also just stay at home, it depends. Anywho, my stores for this week will be:
Silvis, IL
Moline, IL #1
Rock Island, IL
I'm off work this week, and my family and i went to Hawaii to celebrate my sister's graduation. It has been a lot of fun and I posted pictures on Facebook. Tomorrow I am going to hike in Volcano national park, so I am hoping to get a few more pictures. Today we went to Oahu, where Honolulu is. I saw Pearl Harbor, and the Arizona monument. It was a very moving experience and I would definetly say that everyone should see it atleast one time. I also got to tour the battleship Missouri, and I got a bus tour of the island. Yesterday, we went on a plane ride around the big island. Overall, the trip has been awesome! I'll get some more pics up ASAP.
Alright, well I am going to hit the hay. I'm exhausted and this whole 5 time-zones different thing is killing me. haha. See everyone later!
