So, Friday morning of last week found myself and my dear friend Lydia in a car driving to a mysterious location:
The drive was really nice, even if it was wet and sort of dreary looking outside. Anyways, late in the morning we found ourselves at a gigantic church in Houston where both of us have spent considerable time in the past 4 years.
Friday was my first day to walk around with a nametage that said “community judge” at a tournament. I liked it a lot. I also liked walking into the judges’ room. That was fun.
On Saturday we all watched lots of debate rounds. Big surprise, I know. I think this might have been my favorite picture from the day:
This was after David and Christina’s LD round. I’m not sure why I like it so much, other than the fact that everyone in it could have their own caption or thought bubble stuck on it. And it just makes me laugh 
.
On Sunday night I went to a night of prayer in a gigantic church with hundreds if not thousands of people all there because of the 2nd-largest abortion clinic in the world opening in Houston. It was amazing to see how many people came.
On Monday, we all participated in a march around the abortion clinic and the surrounding neighborhoods. There were an estimated 10,000 people who were there–again, amazing. I was so grateful to be there.
Afterwards we all loaded up and headed home. And that ends Part 2.
