Thank you! Thank you Miller Grove HS and Thank you Ashley. As much as you guys feel like us Nomads (no matter what team or region) impact you, it is important that you know just how much you do the same for us. We’re all in this together.
As a team we are conducting an experiment. It’s rare that we get to do laundry. Sometimes we go weeks with no use of a washer or dryer. We wear dirty, baggy, ugly, smelly jeans. We shower in nice, hot, clean, bubbly, flowery smelling bathrooms and then go put on t-shirts with pit stains back onto our bodies. It’s great.
Even greater than that is that moment when someone looks at our raggedy, smelly team and says “Do you guys have any laundry you need to do?” We love that question. Probably even more than we love the question “Are you guys hungry?”
Cause we do. And we are. Always. :)
LAST NIGHT we got the opportunity to do laundry. So we put our dirty clothes in the washer and let it spin. Then we put it in the dryer. but something happened. so when we got up this morning at 7:30am to leave (to drive 7 hours to Knoxville, Tennessee from Richmond(ish), Virginia) THE CLOTHES WERE WET.
So we dried them again.
and again.
and again.
but they won’t dry?
So we’re asking ourselves “Would a dryer explode if you kept it on too long?”
We’ll let you know how it goes.
XOXO
The Southeast Team.

This is our most exciting Screening yet.
Asheville, North Carolina. Today we woke up early and went hiking around Looking Glass Falls. Thats us right up there. Freezing our butts off standing in the mist that came off the falls. Sean couldn’t climb some stuff because of his bum knee. Jessica almost fell into the water getting out to those there rocks. I tried to boulder this one rock but I fell off and twisted my ankle. We saw exactly two millipedes. It was awesome.
Now we’re gonna go explore downtown. It’s gonna be great.
XOXO
Jess Stephan

This is happening on Tuesday night and Jessica, Sean and I are SUPER PUMPED. We got to listen to the radio interview the LOVELY William Hudson Clayton and Tristin Miller/hang out with Tristan at The Green Bean (a swanky lil’ coffee shop in Greensboro). They’re makin’ moves here in North Carolina, and we’re glad LiNK gets to be a part of it.
