Hi Kids, I have been very busy traveling all over our country. I went to see the Clydesdale Horses. They are really big. If you look at theeir horseshoes you can see how much bigger they are than ponies and regular horses. I went to St Louis and to a zoo. I saw a little bird called a bleeding heart. Can you seewhy it is called that? I saw lots of penguins and puffins too. More Dinosaurs and space ships too. I learned it cost a lot of money to send something into space. I went on a bridge that crossed the freeway. There was a glass window in the floor so I sat on it. I was a little bit afraid when I saw the cars zooming by underneath me. I went in a flight simulator so I could feel what it was like to fly. I wish monkeys had wings so I could really fly. Do any of you know what a planetarium is? I went to one and laid on the floor so I could see all the stars and planrts over my head. I also learned you should never look at the sun. It can hurt your eyes. I found the worlds biggest rocking chair. It was so big I could not even climb on it. I would not like to see a giant that would fit in that chair. Cmor was driving along a country road and he stopped because there was a turtle crossing the road. I got out and talked to him and then I picked him up and put him in the grass. He was very slow and I was afraid a car would hit him. I went tovisit a Limo factory for a tour. I learned that they buy regular cars and cut them in half. Then they put in new sections to stretch the bodies and make them longer. They add fancy lights to the ceiling and comfy seats. I even went into the paint booth. I like learning new things. Next we went to the Fantastic Caverns in Missouri. We rode around underground in a jeep and saw all the beautiful rocks and formations deep under the earth. A farmer found this cave when his dog disappeared and he could hear him barking. He found a little hole and when he crawled in, there was a huge cave. It was very exciting.
Have any of you gone to the Bass Pro Sop? It is a store where campers and fishermen and hunters go. I went to the ery first and biggest one. My favorite thing was the ceiling. It looked like Imwas underwater with ducks swimming over my head.
Next on the Mother road I found an old park where children used to play. Have you ever been on a long car ride and you got so tired of having to sit still? This park had a blue whale that kids could go into and then go down slides inside him and into the water. I think if I was stuck in a car, I would have loved to take a break and go swimming. We found an old bridge that had bricks for the floor. Cmor was too tall to go on it so We had to go around. Do you think old bricks would be bumpy or smooth to drive on? Then I got very excited because I went into the Rock Cafe. This is where the Disney people got ideas for the Cars Movie. I had jagerschitzel there for lunch. Isn't that a funny word? There were drawings of woody and Buzz lightyear on the wall from the artist that made that movie. The walls in the bathroom and in the hallways were covered with peoples names. This time it was alright to write on the walls. I went down the road and saw the Mystery Machine. Do you know who drives in it? I went next to another old museum. It had a little diner outside that was just the size of Cmor. People ordered the pieces from a factory and put them together. They were called Valentine diners but I thought they looked like playhouses. I think I am going to stop my blog for now so you do not get tired of hearing Bout me. I will write more tomorrow. Hugs from Junior
