Dude Boy made out like a bandit this xmas. One of the items that we will be using extensively for home schooling is a Digital Blue USB microscope that was a gift from Tracy, Ralph, Phyllis and Charlie Dog. We will use the microscope for a weekly blog entry that we will call “Creepy Close-Up of the Week.” Our first installment is The Hole.

Dude Boy's Christmas
Dear Family and Friends,
I had to go to sleep early on Christmas eve. On Christmas day, I opened a lot of presents. Then I helped my mother make a gingerbread house. Later my grandparents and my uncle came over for Christmas dinner. Nana and Papa gave me a quill that really writes. Saturday we went to Ralph and Tracy’s for Pa’s 80th birthday and the Fife family Christmas party. Mane made me a uniform of a revolutionary war soldier, and she also made me a magician’s outfit. Thanks to everyone for all my presents. I liked everything!
Happy New Year!

Winter break!
Hello family and friends,
Today we put up our Christmas tree. I have started my winter vacation. I really needed a break! We will still do some fun day trips. I am going to Mane and Pa’s for a few days. I will write again when I get back.
Love, Dude Boy

Letter of the Week . . . Caves
Hello family and friends,
Fun day this week was all about caves. First we went to Diamond Caverns. It is a pretty cave with neat formations. Then we learned about the famous cave explorer Floyd Collins. We went to Sand cave. While exploring the cave, his leg got trapped by a rock and he died. Then we went to his grave. The top of his tombstone was covered with pennies.

An early Christmas present
Hey,
I got an early Christmas present! It’s a piano. We had to get a BIG U-haul to get it here. Thank you to Uncle John and Uncle Vic for helping us move it. It is a Baldwin Acrosonic from the early 1950’s. I like the way it sounds. Listen to me play Ode to Joy by Beethoven.
