Bourne's BIG Trip: Auto Show Part 2

Please read Auto Show Part 1 before you read this part. You will not understand anything I'm talking about if you do not read the first edition first. It is just common sense. Trust me, I have been there. Never read a sequel before the first novel. You only learn that once... or two times.

-A.B.

I walked into the motorcycle section, and on the radio close by heard Elvis songs. There was another Elvis statue there, and I looked around for a bike driven by a bat. I still didn't understand the significance to the saying. I looked around, seeing cool Indian motorcycles and Harley Davidson. I then saw a little skinny motorcycle thing, with cool designs and colors of yellow and black. Batman's trademark bat was on it. Driven by a bat! Of course! Bat man! I found the stickers and put them on. Then, after looking at all the bikes, I went out.

The day was windy and cold, and all the un doored big buildings didn't help. There weren't doors to enter the vast storage areas, with drapes and curtains only to protect from the cold. I found Mom, Rebecca, and Dad again, and then enjoyed the time with them, going down and seeing all the cars, and in one building, a stuffy, small hangar, we saw trackers, and all kind of old cars, of Ford's kind, in the early 1900's. It was a cool place, and I was really glad we we're doing it, like seeing old tracker parts and old fire trucks. We also saw failed inventions, like paddle cars and solar cars. They were funny and tacky and wacky, and I could see why they didn't catch on. We also went all along the right side, and then came up on the left side. Here were small buildings that had come from the local town, small and old. We saw a train car, and that was really cool, and behind that was also an old school house. We also saw an old general store. I looked down at the paper. The new clue was: You are running out of gas. Stop at the station to get refueled. I looked and looked for a gas station, then found a small shop with a big tall stand with a circle saying: WNAX Gasahol.I found a sticker there.

We saw an old fire station, and there I found a large bell that came down with a rope, and a big red building. My clue had said: LOOK OUT! Sparky has a fire! Ring the bell to alert the fire department. I rang the bell, and it made a good honest ring. Then I found the stickers and put them on.

We saw a jail and other things, and it was cool to see all the old shops in edition to the old cars. I was really impressed with the place, and I really liked it.

Clue #9: The sheriff has the next clue. You can find him in his office. I saw an old shop and the sign to it said it was the sheriffs office, and so I looked in and saw a manikin man with a badge saying sheriff on it. I looked around and saw the stickers, then looked back to the sheet. FINAL CLUE!: You're almost there! Now go to the bank to complete your map!

Rebecca ran to the bank and found the last sticker, and we were really excited. We had won! Now we got a really cool prize!

We went back to the entrance, by way of going through their restaurant and gift shop. David's son (David's shift was over, he went away) gave us our prize and told us to share it, us giddy as he pulled out... a Frisbee! He gave us a Frisbee. For all that hard work, for all the Sherlock Holmes deduction, we got a green plastic Frisbee. You could imagine how disappointed we were, but we tried not to show it. We "rejoiced" and said thank you a lot and a lot as if he had handed us a million dollars, and he said it was nothing. It was nothing.

But anyway, we ate at their restaurant and left. We saw awesome stuff, did a cool treasure hunt, and although the prize wasn't good, we still enjoyed it. Also, the food at the diner was satisfying. Then we left, and I was glad we came.

Then, we drove for like an hour,(due to our tiredness and loss of daylight) and then landed at an R.V. Park in Mitchell, SD. We had come to spend the night there because of the corn palace that was there, a building made of brick with panels depicting images made of corn. We went to a saloon and ate bad food there, and also looked at the corn palace, but couldn't see it that good in the dark. We then went to bed, I in the back. I slept a good night, but I was not disturbed by any dreams so... sorry to disappoint you.

Goodbye, for now.

I share my father's like in automobiles,

Andrew.
