rolling into cleveland today. sometimes it seems a bit like a blur out here. keeping track of what day it is, what city we're in next. feeling the mix of excitement and exhaustion. but one thing remains constant...the mission each of us took on when we decided to get out here and make some noise...and it's what keeps us going day in and day out. it's giving a voice to the missing that keeps me going. seeing the gratitude of the families, that someone out here cares about what they're going through. every story is unique, with it's own set of hope and frustration, and knowing that we're really making a difference is what makes it all worthwhile.
the bus seems to be stopping, so i should crawl out of my bunk and begin the next step in the journey. til next time, keep the prayers and good energy coming our way. we love you all!

About Me
- CLEMENTINE
- Squeaky Wheel Tour®, or SWT is a series of 100's of events for 19 days from Oct 17-Nov 4 in which artists all over the world profile missing people. Established in 2005, The SWT is organized by The GINA for Missing Persons FOUNDation that was inspired by Jannel Rap, when she realized that if missing people do not have a suspect, scandal or media hook-in other words- if they vanish with out a story, their story will not be told. The foundation's mission is to utilize and create entertainment vehicles that become the hook for people, like Gina Bos, who simply vanish without a media hook. The GINA Foundation web casts many of their events while on the road allowing viewers to be engaged in both the Clementine shows as well as promoting the missing.
