One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
On the first day of college, the guy across the hall happened to be a hot air balloon enthusiast and he took four of us on a ride above the town. We crash landed at the edge of some woods.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a way of folding envelopes from a single piece of paper. I can teach you this method so you can fold your letters directly into an envelope, apply postage, and mail.
