That sounds like a horror novel- “The Thing In The Park”. Okay, so it’s not scary at all. I didn’t say it sounded like a _good_ horror novel.

welcome to our fine state, **Lissla Lissar** , hope you enjoy yourself. I highly recommend Hickory Park, especially the chicken, but then I am not much into ribs.

There is an art fair in Ames on sat? I may have to head over. I missed that one.

Sorry about the heat, should have been here 2 weeks ago. Highs in the 40’s F. Just wait, it’ll change in an hour.
