"Peace begins with a smile"

I spent two weeks in McCall with Stephanie at the snowshoeing venue. I was nervous and stressing out before leaving, not exactly sure of myself and leading volunteers. I'm more of a follower, so the week stretched me- it was chaotic at times, for everyone involved with the Games (transportation, food & beverage, credentials..) But it was wonderful. My favorite part was seeing the athletes compete- watching Reuben win a bronze medal! And greeting the different countries as they came in- being able to share smiles, hugs and handshakes even if we didn't speak the same language. The Games are magical!
