On Wednesday, we will be starting our road trip to meet some amazing people. I'm so excited and nervous that I probably won't be able to sleep or eat. (Ok. Maybe that's not completely true, but you get the point.) I'm going to be meeting so many people that have become my heroes, my friends, and my support team.
