So, as most of you know I am leaving the country for 11 months on September 28th.  That date seemed so far away when I decided that God was calling me to go on the October World Race.  But now as time has flown by, and I get closer and closer to starting this huge, amazing adventure, I realize my next several weeks are insanely busy and full of traveling, planning, and preparation.
 
So, in case any of you wanted to know where I’ll be or what I’ll be doing the next couple months, here’s my schedule:
 
–The rest of this week will be spent in Branson, working at Joe’s and hanging out with friends.

–End of Aug., I will move back home for a couple weeks to pack and finish last minute preparations for the World Race.
