Let me know by e-mail whether you will caravan or go direct.

You also will need to go to the web site to sign up.   Loveforkidsinc.org   This is a new requirement this year so they know who is coming.

    True?

    I just discovered my age group! I am a Seenager. (Senior teenager)  

    I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50-60 years later. 

    I don't have to go to school or work

    I get an allowance every month.

    I have my own pad. 

    I don't have a curfew. 

    I have a driver's license and my own car.

     I have ID that gets me into bars and the wine store. I like the wine store best.

    The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant, they aren't scared of anything, they have been blessed to live this long, why be scared?

    And I don't have acne.     Life is Good!
