When I was a little girl, my father spent two weeks in Scotland on a missionary campaign, as part of the preacher training school at Harding University. It was reported to us that when his plane landed in Memphis, which is only about two hours from my Grandparents house in North East Arkansas, he stood up and said in his booming voice, "I smell Arkansas! I can walk from here!"

Well, on that note, I am happy to report I will be your head cheerleader again this year. Keep an eye out on your emails this October, I have permission to hand out merit badges and I will use it. The catch is you have to help keep your fellow preppers motivated. So, let me catch y'all acting silly and encouraging everyone to find their way to the start of Nano.

Its just a bit over two weeks away for prep to start. I can't wait. I already have brand new deMotivators locked and loaded Expect to see the first one on October 1st.

I smell Nano! I can run from here!
