First Post and Out of State

This is my first post on this site, but I felt this would be a great time to get started.

I'm currently in Kansas City, MO on a SkillsUSA trip. SkillsUSA is a academic group for people in the technical field. I got here because I was in the Forensic Science degree program at Griffin Technical College. I graduated a couple of weeks ago. A team I lead went to State Competion (of Georgia) and won!

Winning State means going to Nationals! We made the plans to go and here we are! We arrived June 23 and will be staying until June 28. We competed in the Crime Scene Investigation contest on Wednesday.

This has been a great week for me to meet people and enojy new things. First, I had never flown before. Secondly, I've never been to Missouri. Third, I've never stayed in such a nice hotel (Sheraton). I got to go to a Japanese Steakhouse. I've had lots of fun here!

The Midwest is hot, very hot.
