Dear Mr. Dave,
Hi!!!! How are you doing? How was the helicopter ride? Was the ride smooth? I have never been in a helicopter before. Was it fun? Have you ever heard of Trooper 4? Trooper 4 is a helicopter that takes people to the Hospital when they are hurt or injured. I have never been to the Hospital for me being hurt. I went to see my mom when she was in the hospital with a blood clot in her leg. My mom was there for a week . Have you ever been to the Hospital? WELL GOTTA GO !!!!!!
BYE-BYE,
KRISTEN
Dear Mr Hess,
Hi this is Ashley I heard that you got to see an ice cutter. Was it really neat or not? When are you going to come back? Was it fun to ride on a helicopter? I have never gotten to ride in a real helicopter. I would not know because I have never traveled in a helicopter. Does your child Zac write to you any since you have been down in Antarctica? Was it fun to meet Sandra Markle? What did you have when you went to that big luncheon with twelve people ?
Your Friend,
Ashley

Hi, How are you doing? I am fine. Thank you so much for writing to us. And Thank you so much for coming. Were you surprised when you saw me? I can't believe that you came. That was really the only time that I talked to you in person. Well, I love writing to you because you always write back and you always answer my questions. Were you kind of scared because of the camera? I was...sort of. I guess I was scared because I was shaking a little. Did you see me on chanell 47? If you did I think i was stupid. I liked how they got us both talking about Mount Erebus.
I am very sorry that I haven't been writing to you. Well, got to go!! BYE!
Your friend always, Nickle
Thank you for coming to see us. I did not see me on T.V but Nickel taped it and she will get me a copy of it. Do you know Bill Miasek. He also works at Wallops? Thank you, Mr. Dave
