Missouri

Wow! Missouri has so many fun things to do.  One time I went with a middle school's band to Worlds of Fun, and I rode the Mamba, and I got to watch the band perform. I hope you ride the Mamba like I did but don't scream.
the Incredible Pizza Place was the funniest of my trips. My favorite game were go karts. My cousin was constantly bumping into me. I loved the slushy. They were the best thing I  have ever tasted in my life.

The only president that was born in Missouri was Harry S. Truman. He was born in Independence, Mo. He became the president in 1945. You should go visit the Truman Library to find out more.

Where should I go?

I wrote to all 50 states for information about them. I have been getting back a lot of magazines and maps. The ones I love the most so far are from Utah, but Oklahoma sent the most stuff and I haven't looked at all of it yet.

I will be taking a virtual 50 state trip this summer with you. I will find somewhere interesting about each state and make a visit to it. I was wanting to do it in the order that I got the mail, but I've gotten so much that it's hard to keep track.

Check back often. I'll be travling all summer long.

You know how much it takes to travel across the world!
