In class we read the essay by Helen Keller about what she would do if she could see for three days. She also said she wished that everyone could be blind for three days in their adult life.

I would then spend a few hours with Dylan Armistead and we would go race go carts after that I would drop him off at his house and thank him for going with me. I would then pick up Hunter Molohon and Bradlee Marburger and we would go out to my land and shoot guns. When the sun starts to go down I would drive up to the house and start a fire outside in the pit. We would stay up
