DG Bill Pollard joined us in St. Croix this week for the district conference. We have truly enjoyed having a fellow Virginian join us and experience the Caribbean and share in the festivities. We have also had a great time meeting the Australian team and sharing our experiences and stories. In between presentations, home hospitality night, cultural extravaganza night, DG Bangquet, we've gone on an island tour with our new Aussie friends, Cruzan Rum Distillery-see Scott trying to tap the rum barrels at the cruzan rum distillery! Bill got to feed the beer drinking pigs-non alcoholic of course but they really do crush the can, drink the beer and spit the can out. It truly is a small world-this week I met Chelsy, a GSE alumni and a VA native living in St. Croix...and when she was in VA she lived about 25 minutes from me! and...her mother works with a family member of mine so Chelsey had heard that I was headed her way! WOW-seriously a small small world.
We were saddened to see Jenny head home on Friday, a few days earlier than the rest of the team, but her college graduation ceremony was this weekend!!! Congrats Jenny! We really really miss you and we're taking pics for you to see!
