I still have to scour the chicken coop to earn my allowance, and I usually blow it on comic books and bubble gum. My favorite comic right now is Lost Clancy Meadows and the Ice Duo -- I couldn't believe the cliffhanger at the end of the last issue!

Yesterday we went exploring in the condemned quarry over by Old Man Williamson's farm. He got mad and yelled at us for trespassing, but we managed to grab a neat silver ring before we left.
