The Adventures of Carlando the Albatross (or Yellow Crayons)

The first albatross I ever saw flew above my family and me while we played foosball on the tenth deck of the Disney Magic Cruise ship.  The name brand of the foosball table was "Carlando," so subsequently that's what I named that bird.
Carlando flew over the vast ocean.  Have I mentioned the waves yet?  O...

In this crazy, ever changing world in which we live in, it is hard to know the difference between right and wrong.  What do you do in high-stake situations, and what does it take for someone to decide to go off the deep end?

I am writing for this paper clip.  
Wait?!  A paper clip?!

Yes it's true, and no I am not mentally ill.
This paper clip holds so much information, so many good ideas.
STAPLES ARE TOO MAINSTREAM!! :)
Admit it we have all found amusement in making paper clip chains!

A little self-realization could do some good! :)

Description: Standard, silver

FOR MEGAN and the others not afraid to dream:
Writing a book is like a Tornado Warning.  Ideas swirling, unpredictable, scary without protection...and when it's done, it's done.  The path behind the storm tells the story.  People won't know how strong it is until examining the aftermath.

Teddy Roosevelt Island

Over the summer I went to Teddy Roosevelt Island.  In the middle of the island is a giant statue of Teddy.  We cross a bridge and see a map of the island.  We let my 11 year old cousin decide which way we wanted to go.  He thought he chose the short path but really he chose the path that took us around the entire Island!  We ended up discovering cool unmarked paths that took us to the Patomic River.  We found blackbe...
