The buck stops, but not us


























On Friday we visited the home of President Harry S. Truman. He's my Grandaddy's favorite president. We left Missouri and went letterboxing in Kansas. Our letterboxing trip took us to the original Pizza Hut. It's on a college campus because it was started by two kids who went to college at Wichita State. Pepsi bought it from them for 300 million dollars. I think I'll start a pizza place when I go to college. We left Kansas and went to Oklahoma where I bought a cowboy hat and ate at the Cattleman's Cafe. On Saturday we visited the National Memorial at the Murrah Federal Building. We saw a lot of seats that glowed at night. Each of the seats stands for a person who died. Some seats were big and some were small because some of the people who died were babies. It was sad. We got up early on Sunday and I gave my dad a shirt for Father's Day and then my dad got to drive 600 miles to Texas. We took Dad to a great BBQ place called Salt Lick BBQ which was yummy and tasty.
