Dear
Family,
I had a
great week this week!  It is so exciting
that I have already been out 6 months.  Time
flies by fast, and I am almost 19!  Well
since there has been some wanting to know about my bike crash I will tell you
about it. Basically, I was biking to an investigators.  Georgia's roads are not the best and their
sidewalks are questionable.  Most of them
are not even and end abruptly.  So while
I was skillfully maneuvering my way through the sidewalk, it ended and started
up really quickly.  I didn't have enough
time to try to jump the curb, so I veered around it.  My tire was caught against the curb on my
right, while there was traffic on my left.  My tire licked up, I bailed right onto the
side walk with my bike, and I took most the damage.  Yep, it was pretty epic and lots of cars saw
me do it. 
This week
I also discovered fireflies.  They are
pretty cool and we even caught some in a jar.  They more so blink at each other rather than
constantly glow.  But here is a picture.  
I love
y'all so much!!
Love,
