Dear Journal,
I won! It's been a while since I wrote in this, three years. But anyway, I won a Kodak picture contest and I won first place and a trip to Santa Fe. I got my picture taken for the newspaper and became Employee of the week at Wal-Mart. First National Bank sent a card and even art teacher ask if I could come in and take to his class.
Dixie gave me a Spanish phrase book to take with him. Henry and Leona gave me luggage. Moses and Certain made a star and put it on the darkroom door. Lexie also has a new way of losing weight, standing up. I know that has nothing to do with my trip but I wanted to include this. So back to the trip, I asked Forney to come with me, while Sister Husband took care of Americus.
I didn't eat much during the awards, where I would explain the picture. As I started, someone made a job about never being up early. Soon I started talking about the boy in the picture, instead of the picture itself. I talked about the Indian boy that was running naked across Rattlesnake Ridge. The same picture of Benny, I had taken three years ago.
The night was prefect too. I had room service, and the man came with the food with a rose and 2 candles, very romantic, too romantic for me and Forney's friend relationship. I talked with Americus and she sang to me on the phone, loved it.
Novalee
