If you haven't yet donated and still would like to, feel free! All of your donations are going to a wonderful cause. :)
I have been training like mad these past few weeks, and am psyched for the trip to begin! (One month as of today!!) I am also very excited to spend time with my family in the weeks leading up to the trip. My first year of graduate school is behind me, and I'm ready to emerge from my cocoon of books, articles, and papers into the light of good company.
Though I will miss everybody at home on my cross-country journey, I won't be entirely disconnected! Of course, I can always send you guys fun postcards and things, and now you can send me things, too!!!
