Mayo Clinic!

Ahhhhhh we went to the Mayo Clinic today. It was so awesome. I can't even believe I stood there. In all of my Community Health classes and my work at the Public Health Department I always hear about Mayo Clinic. I read Mayo's research and I am constantly learning about the accomplishments that have been made. I couldn't believe I was actually in those halls today. What an honor! This trip has made me cherish every minute of every day and it's so good to get a pay off like seeing the Mayo Clinic on a day off. Thanks to everyone that showed us around and spoke to us. My sincerest wishes go to all of the people that we did portraits with yesterday at the Hope Lodge. It is so inspiring to hear those stories and it makes me appreciate every minute of my life. Thank you all for giving me a face to put to my ride. I know what I'm riding for and I now have people to remind me that each struggle is worth so much.
