Ok I am still a bit behind so we are going to travel back in time once more. Our destination this time is a little more then a week ago. It will have us at the end of Judson's spring break.

So, spring break this year was pretty much amazing. Over spring break every year the Judson College Choir takes their spring tour. During tour, the choir sings at a variety of churches and schools - at churches they often serve as worship leaders and at school they are recruiting for Judson. It is a ton of fun because it gives us the opportunity to meet a lot of people, to tell them about Judson and why it is so special to us.

This year for tour we traveled to North Carolina, then up to Maryland, back down to Virginia, then North Carolina again before heading home. It was a busy trip with a ton of driving, but it was well worth it.

 The trip began on Tuesday with a 10 hour drive to get us form Judson in Marion, Ala. to Highpoint, NC. Once in North Carolina the whole choir had dinner with a family that Dr. Ransom (our choir director) knows. When we were through eating we took advantage of the few minuets of spare time and walked around the neighborhood to stretch our legs. I am sure all of the people driving by were wondering why there were girls walking around everywhere they looked! After our walk we had a short meeting to debrief for the day and then we headed out to meet our host families.

            Host families are one of the really cool things about going on choir tour. Rather then staying in hotels when we travel we stay with local families who are part of the church that we are working with in the area or who have some connection with Judson ....To Be Continued
