Meet Flat Stanley

Meet Stanley, he is so manly!

Stanley (full name is Flat Stanley, still figuring out what his real first name is) is a paper cut-out that I received from my younger cousin, Dylan from Poland, Ohio (yes it is also a city near Youngstown, Ohio). I received Stanley in the mail and with him came a letter that read...

In school we read a book about a boy who was flattened by a bulletin board. His name is Flat Stanley. He wanted to go on a trip, so his family folded him up and mailed him to California. I am mailing my Flat Stanley to you. Please take him somewhere and write me back telling me where he went. If you have pictures or postcards, please send them, too. When Flat Stanley arrives at my school, I will share his adventures with my class, and map out his destinations. Please return Stanley and his adventure back to me no later than April 2nd. Thank you for helping me with this project. I wish I could fold myself up and visit you.

Cute, right? Well, needless to say I was stoked to be able to show off to a bunch of elementary school kids. I am not even being sarcastic. Totally SERIOUS right now! I wanted to show up on this little duty that was put on me and I began to think about where I would take Stanley...

So if you got Stanley, where would you take him? Where are your favorite places to be?
