I have started the hardcore traveling for the internship. This past week I was in the Commonwealth State (Virginia for those of you who need some more American History). While there I was able to visit Virginia Tech University, University of Virginia (where I saw Libbie Thomas!!!), and Liberty University. Those are 3 beautiful campuses.
VT-

UVA-

I didn't take any pictures at Liberty.. whoops.. I really enjoyed the trip and got to see some great friends and meet a ton of new people and even got a few people to apply for camp.. I'm good at my job if I say so myself. And a cool story, while at Virginia Tech, I sneaked into Lane Stadium, Home of Beamer Ball, and even met Bud Foster, VT defensive coordinator, inventor of the "lunch-pail", if you really know me you know how much I loved seeing and experiencing other colleges and their History and Traditions. I even got a tour at UVA from a "U-Guide", which is their form of "MSU Roadrunners" they have nothing on us, but the girl did give an amazing, impromptu tour of Jefferson's Rotunda and "the lawn", the campus is beautiful.
While at VT, I was able to see the April 16th memorial, where the stones lie for the 30 people killed in the VT shooting, it was very touching and a reminder of even though we make fun of Maroon Alerts at MSU, they are used as a preventative and keep us safe.
I will be leaving on Monday for my next big adventure. I am leaving on an 11 day trip that includes stops and recruiting at: Clemson, FSU, Pensacola, Flagler, St. Augustine, Orlando, Gainesville, Jacksonville, and lastly back to Charlotte, NC. I am excited and hope to see some sun and warm weather.. God is good and I am amazed every day at how much he has blessed me with in this opportunity I have been given.
Random Stuff:
- I am beginning to read 2 books this week, one is personal: Crazy Love; and one for work: Scouting the Divine. I am very excited about both.
-We had yet another ice storm here, and as frustrating as it is, it makes for beautiful pictures and landscapes.
