HEY
LULU
HOW'S SNOW WHITE?
I HOPE SHE'S GOOD AND YOU TOO!!!
HOW DID YOU LEARN TO RIDE?
SAMANTHA IN AUSTRALIA
Dear
Samantha
Before I lived here in Wiggins, I lived in England with
my dad. Two afternoons a week, I went to a riding school.
There I rode a Welsh pony named Ginger. I started out
just riding in the ring in lessons. Once I could walk,
trot, canter and jump, then me and my friend Emily used
to go for long rides in the countryside.
It was really fun, we had slickers and would ride sometimes
even if it was raining. I was really sad when I moved
to Wiggins because I left Ginger behind, then I got Snow
White and now I'm really happy to have my own pony.
Your friend,

Hiya
Lulu?
Hows everything?
Its Hannah, so you remember me? Thanks so much for replying
to my letters I gave you and thanks for giving Snow
White a kiss from me behind her ear!
I'm glad to hear you are good and your dad is good.
I just wish I could go to Annas mothers Diner, it sounds
like a
wonderful place, with yummy food in it!! What's the
special for this week?
Look forward in hearing your reply,
Hannah
Dear
Hannah
It is really nice to hear from you again! We all rode
over to the diner for lunch last week and it was really
good. The special was "local summer pasta."
It had macaroni noodles with chopped fresh tomatoes
and basil, little pieces of zucchini and eggplant that
were fried and lots of cheese from Wiggins organic dairy
on the top. It was so good! I thought I wouldn't have
room for dessert.
But then Anna's mom brought over a piece of plum tart
and some ice cream. She said this is her favorite time
of year and we had to try it. We all agreed that it
was ALMOST as good as her brownies.
Friends,
Dear
Lulu, The wait's worth it just to have your hair cut for
free.
Your grandma sounds busy. Your grandmother's friends would
be sad if she moved to Florida. How's your dad? I got
my hair cut shoulder length in the Summer of 2003, and
it's still shoulder length. Please tell Lightning, Acorn,
Snow White, your grandmother and your dad that I said
hello. Sincerely, Cayce
Dear Cayce
My dad is good. He got back from the brush and has a couple
of weeks before he has to head back out. He said while
he was out he got to eat some really tasty meat. When
he asked his helper what they were eating, he found out
it was a kind of giant African rat! It was cooked over
a fire in a stew and was pretty good, though.
He offered to send me and grandma the recipe but I wrote
back and said it was ok, he didn't need to. Can you imagine
what grandma would say if I asked her to make a stewed
rat?!
Your friend,
