This morning we arrived at EHUM at 7 am to get on the bus to head to New Jersey. (Finally!) We knew it was going to be a long trip when approximately a minute into the trip Clay announced that “Mary Kate is bored.” However, 13 hours of driving, 4 stops (including one for dinner), 5 movies (Lauren would like to emphasize that we watched Captain America), many naps and games and chats later, we have arrived!
It seems a bit unreal that the trip we’ve been talking about
since the first week of April is actually here. The whole team has been working
for about 3 months for this one trip, and the final step in our journey has
finally begun. We’re really excited for the whole weekend, but also for
tomorrow to head to the shore! Spending so much time sitting on the bus has us
all looking forward to spending some time outside on the beach.
One thing that has really hit me this past week preparing to
come to New Jersey is how many people are behind us and support us. This
includes team members and adults for L.O.G. #61 at Bashor to current students
and adults who participate in L.O.G. to L.O.G. alumni to family and friends.
Today on the bus some of us even video chatted with a friend in Germany who
attended L.O.G. #60 as a foreign exchange student. It means the world to me
that so many people support us, and I feel that love surrounding us. I want to
thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers, and please keep them coming!
There’s still a lot to be done here, especially with the actual weekend
beginning Thursday!
Love, Anna Polovick
