28 (twenty-eight) is the natural number following 27 and preceding 29.

  • It is a composite number, its proper divisors being 1, 2, 4, 7, and 14.
  • Twenty-eight is the second perfect number. As a perfect number, it is related to the Mersenne prime 7, since 22(23 – 1) = 28. The next perfect number is 496, the previous being 6.
  • Twenty-eight is the third Granville number. The next Granville number is 96, the previous being 24.

Twenty-8 is:

  • The atomic number of nickel.
  • The fourth magic number in physics.
  • The revolution time of the surface of the Sun on itself is 28 days 
  • The jersey number 28 has been retired by several North American sports teams in honor of past playing greats or other key figures:
    • In Major League Baseball:
      • The Minnesota Twins, for Hall of Famer Bert Blyleven.

      • The Chicago Bears, for Willie Galimore.
      • The New York Jets, for Curtis Martin.

The number 28 is a significant number. But it is significant to me because in 28 days, I will be leaving on my World Race.

WOW.

TWENTY EIGHT DAYS. I’ve gotten nearly everything I need to be outfitted and am simply waiting on the funding to come in and, Praise the Lord, I’ve met my September goal and am working towards my next one.

My birthday is on September 11 th and this year I’ll be turning 23. This year, in lieu of gifts or cards, please consider giving a donation of $23 towards my trip!

If 330 people give $23 I’ll be fully funded! 

I have nearly 975 friends on facebook. I only need 330 people to give me the best birthday present. EVER.

You can also make monthly donations… maybe $23 a month for 6 months? 🙂

To make a donation, hit the “SUPPORT ME” button in the left column. (Be sure to do a bank draft so you don’t have to pay a fee.)

OR 

Contact me for more details if you’d just like to give it me in person. 

Financial update: Today I have $7,673 in my support account! woohoo!

Pray Today: 

That I am completely funded before I leave.

That I sell my Jeep Wrangler.

That my last days with family and friends are blessed with great memories.
