Dear class,
Today, Tidy Teddy visited Townline Tractors, a big tractor store in central New Hampshire. He got to ride on a lot of different tractors, old and new, and all different colors! Mr. Perkins and I even got to ride on them with him! He also got to drive a machine called a “Bobcat”, which has big treads like a tank and has a bucket on the front for picking up dirt and rocks. Tidy Teddy had so much fun that he wants to ride in one again soon!
Love,
Ms. England
Dear class,
Today, Tidy Teddy, Mr. Perkins, and I visited the “Vermontasaurus” in Thetford, Vermont. The Vermontasaurus is a 25-foot tall and 125-foot long folk art representation of a dinosaur on the grounds of the Post Mills Airport. It was created by Brian Boland, a retired teacher and experimental balloon pilot. Together with a crew of volunteers, they used scrap lumber from a collapsed portion of Boland’s private museum and hot-air balloon manufacturing facility to build the dinosaur. Mr. Boland and his volunteers built the Vermontasaurus in 5 days in June of 2010. Tidy Teddy looked so small next to the Vermontasaurus, but he loved it!
Love,
Ms. England
Dear Ms. England’s class,
Tidy Teddy traveled with my sister, brother-in-law, and me to Colorado Springs, Colorado. We visited the US Air Force Academy. My sister Beverly and brother-in-law Jim held Tidy Teddy outside the Air Force Academy, and I took a picture with him next to a jet airplane. It was really neat!
Love,
Dr. Streit
