The Final Itinerary!

Just a quick post to update everyone on the final itinerary for our trip. I already have a small list of friends and family that are going to be near some of our stops and able to come meet me and the team during our trip. I'd love to add your name to that list! If you happen to be in or near one of the cities we stop in let me know, it would be great to connect with old friends while we are traveling!

Also, if you have any connections in any of the cities we stop in that can help us out in any way please let me know. I love great examples of the power of personal connections, it makes the experience so much more meaningful, and I'm fascinated by the theory of 6 degrees of separation, 6 connections away from anyone in the world.

The Haircut Fundraiser Results

After a month of voting, the last day was the deciding moment in the haircut fundraiser. After Mugatu held the lead as the favorite among donors all month the flood of last minute donations sent The Friar flying over the top to end with a total of $618 in donations last Thursday at 2:30pm when I called the vote and Mugatu was left in the dust but still accumulated $413 in donations over the month. The final standings are below. This was much more successful than I had hoped for, raising a grand total of $1,293 for The Ability Experience. Thank you to all that donated and voted on one of the hairstyles. It was a fun weekend catching people staring at my hair at the bars, walking around the Seattle Art Museum and wandering the Seattle modern homes tour. My head is not shaved and very cold, first thing I did was buy a warmer wool hat to replace the built in one I shaved off.

Final Standings
1. The Friar = $618
2. Mugatu = $413
3. Frohawk = $145
4. Krusty = $92
5. Top Knot = $25
