Days 1, 2, 3, & 4 Photos
Hi Everyone! Jon emailed me these photos from his phone earlier today. The guys are currently in La Fayette, Alabama! Woo! Here are some fun facts about La Fayette:
-Named in honor of Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de La Fayette (quite a name, huh?), a French aristocrat & military officer who made great contributions to the American Revolution. In fact, many other places in the US bear his name, or a semblance of his name (Lafayette College in PA & Fayetteville, NC to name a couple). See this link for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquis_de_Lafayette
-Birthplace of heavywight boxing champion Joe Louis, or, "The Brown Bomber". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Louis
That's all for now! Thanks everyone for all of the words of encouragment...I know Jon and Jimmy appreciate it!
