Woo Hoo! It has been a whirlwind summer! There was so much to do my eyes were rolling! I went to the Old West End Festival, the Holland Strawberry Festival, a dozen church festivals, a ton of Rib-Offs, and the Polish, German-American, Greek-American, and Irish American Festivals! Such a diverse community; it’s no wonder I got distracted!
I loved the hot weather, too, but now it’s starting to cool down and I know autumn is coming on fast. Before it gets too cold, I want to catch a football game at the Glass Bowl, see the Walleye, and hopefully make it to the zoo to see my cousins, the Kihansi Spray Frogs, before they go to Tanzania.
Speaking of cousins, my family is huge! I have over 3,000 brothers and sisters. It was a crowded nursery. To pass the time until we hatched, our mother used to tell us the lore of the Black Swamp. It’s passed down from generation to generation. I hope to be able to share it with you and add my own adventures to the legendary tales. For now, I must bid you adieu. Until next time!
