Welcome!

I saw this idea for making wooden dolls on Grace Lin's Pocket Pacy blog. I decided to make my own, because it looked fun. I am calling them passing dolls because if you are given one of my dolls I would like you to take them somewhere and then pass them on to someone else for another journey. If you are willing to share the journey on this blog, please take a picture of you and the doll on your trip and send it to passingdolls@gmail.com with a description and I will post it here on my blog. Thanks!

Kara visits Indianapolis

Today I visited Indianapolis.  That's a long word, huh?  My friend and I are at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway where the annual Indy 500 is held every May.  The speedway was built over a hundred years ago.  The rectangular track is two and half miles long.  For the Indy 500 the cars make 200 laps to go distance of 500 miles.  The record for one lap around is just under 38 seconds.  I was so exited that I ran a lap around the track, it only took me two hours!  Now I am going to crash.
