disneygurlz2s Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 Hi Everybody... Reporting on behalf of Sammi.... She has received about 20 so far from TPRers!! Many of the international ones are starting to arrive now. Unfortunately, little "Dory" isn't very good at remembering who and where they are all from, but I will find time to stop by the school and take a look for myself real soon. I know she did get the one from Zaney (Tokyo DL!). I think that one stood out in her mind because it had the RODENTS on it! Robb is right...she has until the 13th of November to receive. They don't have to be a park or even any special attraction...all states, countries and cities are interesting (I am actually looking forward to when we get to bring them home to see and read all of them!) Have a great weekend everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHulk Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I can send you another one from FL. The city I live in dosen't have very many interesting facts, but I can write down two from a city close to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRapidsNerd Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Dear Sammi and Mom, Been a busy couple weeks and FINALLY got the postcard in the mail today. Look for a Space Shot postcard from the US Space and Rocket Center in the coming week. Sorry for the delay. Looking forward to hearing how things turn out. Sounds like all will work out very well. Always glad to help out a fellow/sister TPR member. Best to you all, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRapidsNerd Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Ok, sign me up for dumbest things said/did on TPR. It's been a LOOOONNNGGG time since I've sent anything snail mail, let alone addressing a post card. Well, when I sent it the other day, I put my address on it thinking "return to sender address" and not Sammi's address. EPIC FAIL! Sorry Sammi and Mom. I'll get it fixed and in the mail soon. Hope you get a laugh of this at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PirateTinkerbell Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Hi Sammi! How excited we are about your wonderful class project! What a fun way to learn about our country! Our family (My Mom, Dad, and Me) live in Arizona. My Mom and Dad grew up in Ohio and I have lived in Arizona all my life. We're excited to assist you with your project and we will be sending you postcards from many places in our beautiful state. We hope you enjoy discovering the Grand Canyon, Oak Creek Canyon, Montezuma Castle, the San Francisco Peaks, Meteor Crater, Sedona's red rock country, and lots of other special sights. We'll send you a postcard showing you what autumn looks like in northern Arizona. We're confident you will learn a lot from The Great State Race, have fun hearing from people!

TheRapidsNerd Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Mailing Postcard..Take 2 A funny thing happened on the way to mail your postcard today. I stopped by the US Space and Rocket Center gift shop to get another postcard after fubar-ing the first. On the way in is a little memorial for Miss Able Baker, one of the first monkeys in space. There's a tradition of leaving a banana on top of the monument as a little tribute. While looking at this, I noticed for the first time, a smaller, flat monument. This one was for Big Al, another space monkey AND Able's husband. Curiously, Able had her customary banana, but Big Al didn't. As luck would have it, I had a banana with me that I bought for breakfest this morning. The answer was obvious. I grinned and said quietly "Here you go, pal", placing the banana on the stone. For some reason, I briefly petted the stone just like you would a dog or cat. Yep, the second banana got his OWN banana today, thanks in part, to your class project. Where ever he is, I'm sure Big Al is one happy little space monkey. Hope you enjoy the story and postcard that's once again on it's way. Best, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beeja Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hey! I sent mine a few weeks ago, I hope it got there on time! I sent one from Leuven, aka Beer Town, in a self-painted enveloppe to help Sammi's class win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
