Today was a very good day.

Really excited right now! But more on right now later. Last TGIF we got to take kayaks across the lake to get ice cream, and we were accompanied by Joe White himself! I decided to walk down the the street with Link Laurel and talk to some friends of hers. They were some kids selling t-shirts for their rehab program. We talked to them for a while and even lost track of the time. When we decided to get back to the others, we discovered they had left! Once we got back to the dock we saw a few people left, who were looking for us. It was all around a pretty fun experience. This weekend, a bunch of people went on a trip to California, so classes were kind of small this week. Our speaker was Austin Ochs this week. Some of the main things he spoke on were being courageous leaders, being good stewards of what we are given, and that we never truly own anything, it is always given to us. At the end, he gave us all money to go out and do with it as we please, but we were encouraged to use it to serve someone and email him, telling him what we did. I got an entire hundred dollars, while the lowest amount given was twenty. I feel a ton of pressure, because someone last year found a guy who practiced golf every day on a course that he couldn’t afford to actually play on. The student paid for the guy to play a whole round  and played with him. Definitely inspiring, but also raises the bar. If you have any suggestions, I’d be happy to hear them! Until next time, folks!
