  4. KathyAlaska

  5. Kathy’s Journal Entry I visited Alaska because of the beauty of the scenery. You may see green grass on one side and white snow on the other. The weather is about the same there as it is here. The sights you see are moose, bears, and wolves.

  6. TimMassachusetts

  7. Tim’s Journal Entry I traveled to Boston with staff and guests from Gould Farm. Our travel plans were to look into a job in Atkinson, Mass. and a group home in Waltham, Mass. We went to a coffee shop in Boston, Mass. On the way home we stopped on the highway at Burger King and Friendly’s. Gould Farm is in Monterey, Mass. Paul Revere’s House

  8. Bill New York

  9. Bill’s Journal Entry Mady and I went to Niagara Falls on July 29. We did a lot of fun things. We took the Maid of the Mist boat under the falls. We took a walk under the falls and saw rocks. We went to the museum to see different things. We saw the barrels and boats that people used to go over the falls. Then we went to a restaurant that looks like a spaceship for lunch and looked at the view. Then we headed home.

  10. LouieAlaska

  11. Louie’s Journal Entry I’m going to Fairbanks because I knew a person in the service in Alaska. My brothers Donald, Harry, Nelson, and Raymond and I will travel together to Alaska. We started at 9:00 am and went by plane to Fairbanks Alaska and arrived in two days. We will leave on July 10th and arrive home on July 12th.

  12. Mady Connecticut

  13. Mady’s Journal Entry I went to Middleton Connecticut. I liked the scenic views. We ate lunch with Bobby, Bill’s good friend. Then we went riding and shopping all over. The radio in the car played pretty music. I also heard birds chirping and crickets singing peacefully. I did not want to come back from my journey to Connecticut.

  14. Jane California

  15. Jane’s Journal Entry, page 1 My family, all my friends, and I went on a trip to California to tour a lot of places that are points of interest to me and everyone on the trip!!! We went to the theater of the stars and our next joint venture was to go to Mann's to see stars’ hand and foot prints, and signatures.

  16. Jane’s Journal Entry, page 2 We also visited the major Hollywood studios of yesteryear to tour the old movie sets!!! The thing I liked about Mann’s is that it is steeped in the history of a time known as the Golden Era of Hollywood.Actors and actresses went to see the movies they made in that particular movie theater.

  17. Jane’s Journal Entry, page 3 I read in a Story recently that when the old Grauman’s Chinese Theater was sold, the new owners searched for a different name. Someone came up with calling it Mann's Chinese Theater. They call it Chinese because it’s built like a Chinese Pagoda.

  18. BrianArkansas

  19. Brian’s Journal Entry I woke up around 5 AM and took a shower, got Dressed, and watched some TV. Around 7AM I left my room and went across the street to have breakfast. I then went to Crater of Diamonds State Park and started mining for diamonds. By 11AM I had found 17 diamonds. I went to the local diamond exchange and sold them for $1,500.

  20. GaryMontana

  21. Gary’s Journal Entry I visited this scenic area while in Montana. It is the Glacier National Park. I enjoyed my stay there a lot.
