Default ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

I, and 2 of my neighbors, were challenged to complete the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge this morning and we did it. We each then challenged 3 others. ALS Foundation has been receiving an extraordinary amount of donations because of this fun activity. If you do not accept the challenge, by being doused with ice water, you contribute $100. If you do complete it, you send a small donation. This contribution can simply be made online and they do accept PayPal. We had a good time entertaining all the neighbors as well as our husbands who were very happy to oblige by dumping the buckets of ice water on us.

In my attempt on attaching photo you'll see my husband getting his veteran's service medal from Gov Scott on Wednesday.

I've been watching on television. What a great idea for a great cause. I had a first cousin who passed with ALS. Its not a pretty sight. I am making my donation.

Thank you! One of the girls that did this had a friend pass from ALS at age 42.

It's a fun neighborhood challenge for a good cause.
