we're in the news!
so going for a milkshake at Andys Burgers at Lake Gaston, we were suprised that one of the staff called the local paper the Lake Gaston Gazette Observer, and within 10 minutes a reporter, John Sessoms was on scene to ask us about our trip. being interviewed and having our pictures taken was incredibly cool. we've also been suprised a few other ways! 1) josh's mom talked to her boss and now we have a sponsorship from World Gym and 2) his grandads girlfreind Maggie made us Long Way To Skate stickers!!! incredibly cool. we have been stuck in lake gaston because of barrages of rain (blah). but hopefully we'll be underway at sunrise tomorrow. ill be posting pics up here in a few minutes, and i fixed the page so it loads faster (the maps on a separate page now). anyway, ill go finish updates on everything so ill talk to you later. yall take care!!!

ReplyDeleteI was so happy to see that you got sponsorship that is pretty much what I was trying to get you however, it's difficult when you don't work and are unable to network. Kudo's to World Gym. Keep it up guys doing excellent. It Blog wouldn't let me post under AOL, so this is how I did it, BTW this is Debera Howard.
