I live on a dairy farm. I have two
brothers: Jeremy, 3; Joshua, 11
weeks. We have 49 cows, two Ger
man Shepherd dogs, Duke and
Prince and four cats and a lot of
heifers.
We found a balloon that had a
note from a second grade girl in the
state of Mississippi. She said her
other balloons landed in Florence,
Ala; and Ransom, Ky. Daddy said
the balloon that we found must
have flown 1,200 miles in one day
because they sent a letter and it
said they launched the balloon the
day before.
I made a wrenhouse in art class
at school.
