Thank you William Hart!

Thank you William Hart for your generous donation of baggage fees! An entire suitcase of shoes and socks will be headed to Jamaica because you helped out! Thank you!

This trip we are hoping to take 6 suitcases filled with love to Jamaica. We are flying Air Tran, and their baggage fees are not cheap. We will be traveling with 9 checked bags total and the breakdown looks like this.

Bags 1-3 $25 each. These will be filled with our personal items, and then stuffed with extra bits if we have room.
Bags 4-6 $35 each. These will be filled with love to give out to the workers and school.
Bags 6-9 $75 each. These will also be filled with love to share.

Thank You Half Fanatics!

Thank you Half Fanatics!

If you're not a runner, you may be wondering just who the Half Fanatics are. They are a group of runners who like to run the Half Marathon distance, and have joined a national club of like-minded people. There is a facebook group to support them, and I got on it a few days ago to talk about an upcoming race. (Yes, I'm a Half Fanatic too, #4222 Yahoo!) I mentioned that I was going to Jamaica, collecting shoes, etc. Well, wouldn't you know, I open my mouth and people help! I received 4 pairs of shoes and $50 from people in the group. Thank you David and Karen!
