FLAT STANLEY'S TRIP TO NEW JERSEY

On Saturday .... the 20th of May .... I heard a scream from my mailbox .... the voice said "mayday"!!

So I opened my mail … and to my surprise … out jumped a man who was not much in size.

He said "Flat Stanley's the name", as he started to laugh … "I've been scrunched up in mailbags for a day and a half".

"I was sent here by Brendan .... to have fun with you .... he said New Jersey was a great place where there' s lot's to do!! !!

So I looked at Flat Stanley .... and boy, was he thin .... I said "let's go to SIX FLAGS GREAT ADVENTURE .... and he started to grin!!!!

The first thing we did was go on some rides … we ate ice cream and pizza and went down some slides.

Flat Stanley was having much fun on this day .... with the food and the rides for which I had to pay. He said "Where to next?", with a smile on his face .... I said "the fun has just begun, now let's keep up our pace."

The next stop on our journey was a three hour ride .... down to WILDWOOD New Jersey .... "It's awesome" Flat Stanley cried.

We played games on the boardwalk, and went to the beach… where Flat Stanley and I had a banana split each.

By this time Flat Stanley and I had gone only two rounds … Flat Stanley, however, gained almost ten pounds.

Our next destination after our fun in the sand .... was the home of the GIANTS .... at the MEADOWLANDS.

We had burgers and hotdog's at the pre-game tailgate .... where Flat Stanley got heartburn .... what a terrible fate.

The Giant's won the game by a score of 21 to 14 … at this point Flat Stanley was not looking to lean.

Flat Stanley looked at me and said "where to now?" .... I said MOUNTAIN CREEK WATER PARK .... Flat Stanley said "wow".

We went swimming in the wave pool and raced on the speed boats .... we had peanuts and popcorn .... and played tag on the raft floats.

Flat Stanley then said "Where's our next date?" … I said "it's time to go home to the CONSTITUTION STATE."

Before Flat Stanley went home, we went for one final meal .... I had lasagna, and he had the veal. We enjoyed this food at my favorite deli … the next problem occurred on Flat Stanley's belly.

He was much to fat to send home in the mail … he gained 45 pounds and had quite a large tail.

I sent him home to Brendan on a choo choo train … and put him on a strict diet consisting of grain.

He came down as Flat Stanley .... not looking to manly .... and left with a name change which now is FAT STANLEY!!!!!!
