The past few days have been a little weird without our third teammate, Tim, around. He left the Vagabond Tour a week early to jump on board the Ten Out of Tenn tour, a two-week-long tour featuring 10 musicians out of Nashville, TN. He’ll be selling TOMS at the shows and helping out with other aspects regarding the tour. After some unexpected transmission issues, Michelle and I are up and running again with the Vaga-Van. We had one of our best events of the tour at a church (which was held in a museum) in Columbia, SC  Sunday night, selling 142 pairs of shoes!! They were doing a series on giving and at the end of each of the three services, the pastor invited the people to take the shoes off of their feet and bring them to a pile in the front, which would be donated to homeless shelters in the city. He then talked about TOMS and announced that we would be in a designated area following the services, where they would have the opportunity to buy a new pair of shoes, and in turn, give a second pair of shoes away. Approximately 600 people donated the shoes off of their feet to their own community before even finding out that we were outside selling shoes, which was awesome. Team Southeast is going out with a bang…!!
