Through the Plains

This is Will.
On the second night in Arkansas, there was a huge storm. We were at the science museum. We went through an old mine, saw a skeleton, and did a bunch of activities including bubbles, air, and dinosaurs. We also did this electricity station and the instructor let us touch an electric ball, and when you touched it your hair stood up. And then he smoothed your hair out with an electronic thing. It felt like butter spreading on bread.
We had many other exciting adventures and we went to an activity room and then went and ate Chinese food. Then we drove out to Oklahoma.
Oklahoma is pretty flat and boring. There isn't much to talk about except a few things. We went to Oklahoma City and saw where some bombing had occurred. A man drove a truck near a big office building with a daycare inside and blew it up killing innocent children and parents. We saw memorials that represented sadness and actual remains of the building that had been blown.
Then we went to a place that is part of Route 66 and saw where some Okies might have stayed on their journey from Oklahoma to California.
then we got to the hotel. The elevator smells bad. I hate taking it. We went to an ice cream place and I got a giant cone. I didn't eat half of it.
That sort of wraps it up. Bye. Sincerely, Will

  1. Hi Will, Sounds like you're having a great trip, despite the stinky elevator! Wave hello to my Okie relatives as you drive through the state. I think OK is big and flat and boring too (but don't tell my relatives that)! I do like seeing the thunderstorms from far away though. Say hi to your dad. Bronwyn

  2. Will, keep writing, its so fun to read what you are doing. Too bad the hotel didn't have stairs!

    Must have been a very big ice cream not to finish it all. Pretty sure I could have finished it. Have fun - miss you!
