Hi All...
Just got this picture of the Teenagers and Teachers this morning with one of their Hosts...Mr. Williams Aunt...Uncle taking the picture.
They had a wonderful time in California. The run on the Santa Monica Pier turned out wonderful. They met people from 23 different Countries..they were not allowed to sign the Pledge or Register of course. But made their meeting new people an enjoyable experience. On their way to San Francisco for a day of rest and fun...saw Golden State Bridge, Alcatraz, and many other wonderful sights. Finally they experienced All American Sport of taking in a Baseball game!!! They went on to Napa Valley where they were staying with Mr Williams Aunt and Uncle for the evening. They saw the vineyards and the beautiful Napa Valley scenery...Firework display in the Valley itself. Early morning wake up call...on the road by 4 AM to make a long drive to Portland, Oregon...10 hour drive. Everything went really well there and very much welcomed by the town. They had a lot of fun at Fit Right NW and the owner Rob were their Hosts. Again the next day a long drive ahead of them as they made their way to Spokane, Washington. Sadly they fell 2 hours short of their drive. The van decided to act up and they are in a town on Kennewick near Richland. Hopefully by tomorrow the mechanic there will have them up and running again. He was even gracious enough to set them up in a Hotel. They are confidant they will make up the 2 down days. What great spirits and pride this Team has!!!
Please with these two major repairs don't forget to click on their "How Can I Help" and Donate. Even $1 helps them complete their mission. They are really making North Carolina PROUD!!!
Thank You All!!!
Angel

Angel, glad the mechanic put them up in a hotel. Hope people will think about donating so they can get the van up and running again.
