So sorry for the lateness of this update, but here is info from our second letter!
From the great state of Maryland. A horse loving lady who is a life long resident lives on a beautiful farm. Oh and the snow, 15 inches a year,if not more, if only Southeast Texas ever got real snow!I would give anything if our summers stayed in the 90's or below She goes on to tell us that Maryland has lots of jobs because it is close to Washington DC. Baltimore was founded in 1729 and the largest seaport in the Mid-Atlantic. Maryland is famous for it's blue crabs and crab cakes! Yummy! Baltimore is also the home of Fort McHenry, where the Star Spangled Banner Was written by Francis Scott Key in 1814. She wrote 3 wonderful pages with awesome pictures! Maryland is a state I would like to visit. We got a cute little piggy bank to our collection and a nice box of salt water taffy. So yummy, if you haven't tried this chewy taffy you must! Thanks for your letter!
