Unexpected, but Very Welcome Support!

So the last couple of days I've been thinking of adding another post, but didn't know quite how to word what I wanted to say, but then yesterday something really awesome happened.
I'll get to that in a moment, but first I want to say that lately I've been really amazed at the amount of support I've been receive from everyone around me. I have to admit that when I first started tell friends and family about my tour, I was a little worried about the reactions I would get (people might just think I'm crazy), but I now know that that is the last thing I have to worry about.

Not only has everyone I know given me great support but I have received support from the most unlikely places! This brings me back to the awesome thing that happened yesterday. So I had just made a new facebook group about my tour "Rachel's Cycling to Halifax!" and I got a message from someone who I thought was a complete stranger named Andrew Allen. Apparently he had come across my page, loved what I was doing and, being a musician, wanted to contribute a song to my cause and campaign! After chatting a bit we established that we actually do have some common friends, but this just came right out of no where! I was blown away! To make the story shorter, he is playing at the JunoFest downtown this Sunday. I'm going to go down, hear him play and we can figure out the details :)If anyone wants to take a listen to his tunes go to...www.andrewallenlive.com and listen to "love life"- that's the song we both thought was the most appropriate.

Thank you everyone for the amazing support, and please keep it coming:)
