I just got back from an event in Rock Valley, IA; we saw some beautiful fall colors in the drive down. The event went very well! It was the second year they have hosted an event, and they packed over 125,000 meals! We had a little bit of a bug problem, there were lots of flies. We also got the opportunity to drive to the ice cream capital of the world...Le Mars, IA! Yum. The ice cream tasted better there too. I got to work with Ryan and Sarah, and we had so much fun together. One of the cool things that happened took place before the event started. Someone donated $200 to the school and the 8th graders were each given $10 of that money to either donate right away or make grow. They made it grow from $200 to $5,000! Holy cow! That is definitely they spirit of a community coming together to make a difference in the world.
