Wally Visits Philadelphia

Hey! What’s up? Wanna know what I did on December 29? I went home with a friend .We went to Betsy Ross’ house and saw Samuel Nichols. I got a picture with him. We also went to East End Salon, which is made up of houses from the 18 century. One of the buildings was Betsy Ross’ bedroom! I got to sit by the fire there. I wish she could tell me a story. Her birthday party was soon, so we got stamps for the invitations at the Benjamin Franklin post office.

I learned what post offices looked like in the 1700’s. Betsy Ross is a famous Pennsylvanian who may have made the first American flag! Awesome…. Samuel Nichols said that no matter if an American flag has 13 stars, or 50 stars it is still an American flag.

What I learned matters to Pennsylvania, the USA, and the world because without a post office people couldn’t send letters, and if there was something really important of serious going on, they couldn’t notify some one far away. Benjamin Franklin needed to send important letters to important people far away to help this country.

Well, that’s what I did on December 29. But before you’re done reading, I want to ask you a question.

Do you think the Benjamin Franklin post office is more important, less important, or as important as the American flag? Why do you think this? Please make sure you have strong support.

All right that’s all for now. See you later. And answer my question at, The Wally Blog.
