April 20 – Flat Stanely went to see the Green Dream at Beachwood Community Center.  First, he stopped by the welcome table for a photo.  He enjoyed a smoothie sample at one of the booths.

He loved the model of the rocket ship at the NASA booth.  It was cold and dreary, but Nick and Sally still had fun taking him climbing rocks.

He especially liked trying a green smoothie at the Vitamix booth.  He bought me a Vitamix before he left town.

We had a great time having Flat Stanley visit.  It was kind of like being on vacation.  So, now we’re getting back to reality.
