Day 1- Sendoff & LaGrange


SUNDAY JUNE 17TH, 2007

  



Welcome one and all to the TWB Adventure #2!!!
This happens to be the greatest adventure that TWB has ever experienced! This blog is written by group BASHFUL!!

The adventure began on June 18, 2007 when we met at Davidson College. While traveling we went through Atlanta, Georgia and passed Georgia Tech University and Turner Field, where the Braves play! Two rest stops and six hours later, we finally reached the Wal-Mart in LaGrange, on the Georgia-Alabama State line. There, we shopped for dinner supplies and last minute items.
One memorable experience was when our new friend, Evan Martin, threw up on the van. (Don't worry Mrs. Martin, she's fine, she was just a little gassy). The rest of the ride was filled with many corny jokes, stories, and games. We're becoming familiar with many new faces and names. Tonight, we will be staying at LaGrange College on the soccer field after enjoying our gourmet meal of hamburgers prepared by the Happy group.
We look forward to our New Orleans adventure tomorrow! Please keep yourself updated on our traveling adventures. WE LOVE YA'LL!

We went to Wally World today so the cooks (The Happy Group) could buy our dinner!!




Frank the Tank got some fruit for the road!!!




We also had some time to goof off a bit!!!!!!






The Happy Group made us some outstanding Cheeseburgers before we had a relay race and then ended the night with a sing-a-long.







Counselor's Corner:

You can not imagine the fantastic journey that has begun today. Outstanding participants who served us great grilled burgers, super team competitions in fast paced relay races , and now our first group sing a- long... Can it get any better then this? I know this trip will only get better each and every day because of the fantastic participants that we have.

America the beautiful, land of the free and home of the brave, and TWB Trek 2 will touch it and become another thread in the fabric that makes us proud to be Americans


Love,
