Dear Glinda,
I followed the yellow brick road as you advised. I encountered many interesting characters, some friends, some foes. As always, I had Toto with me, and even made wonderful friends with the Munchkins. I was hopelessly tailed by a cowardly lion lacking courage, a total sissy. A stiff, tin man who not only had no heart, but had no flexibility and constantly needed more "oil." And of course there was the brainless scarecrow, this one was so soft and stupid, I couldn't help but feel sorry. Not to mention I had to contend with flying monkeys throughout my ordeal. Emerald City truly opened my eyes to the realities of the world. When the I found out the Wicked Witch would never be able to take my ruby slippers, and all that was need to defeat her was water, everything changed. It allowed me to discover that the Man behind the Curtain was not an all powerful Wizard, and that I had the answers within me all along. It was a life changing experience... or was it all a dream?
Give the Lollipop Kids my love.
Somewhere over the Rainbow,
Dorthy
