ever wondered what happened to her? i do.

i was amelia earhart in the wax museum in the sixth grade. (all the students selected a famous person from history and we composed a live wax museum!) my dad was a pilot and i loved flying, so being a famous female pilot was ideal.

sure wish we'd taken pictures of it. i think my memory of my costume vastly exceeds the reality of it. but we'll never know for sure.

hey sam! i popped by today and i LOVE the polar bears.

do you ever listen to The Story on NPR? they had a really amazing one this summer with a woman who actually heard earhart's distress calls. it's a good listen:
