While Marlee was busy getting her bags packed and putting them into her Barbie camper, her Grandma B called Marlee's daddy and told him what was going on. He wondered out loud to his mom, Grandma B, why Marlee felt that she had thrown Grandma Lu's check away. He was the one that had thrown the trash away that day, so now he felt really bad. Grandma B felt bad because she had told her son to throw the trash away. There was only one person that didn't feel a bit bad; Whitlee Jo. She was having the time of her life in the creek. She loved the water, the sunshine and she especially loved finding all of the creek treasures like slippery but very pretty rocks. If you remember, Whitlee Jo was the one that had made a big mess in the Quiet Room at Marleewood. The mess was a basket full of snacks that had fallen and went all over the floor. Whitlee loves snacks and opened snacks are sometimes very sticky. Is it possible that Grandma Lu's stimulus check didn't get thrown away? Could it have been picked up and put in the basket of snacks in the Quiet Room?
Marlee's dad said, "Well, Mom, what are we going to do? We can't just let Marlee head down the road by herself." Grandma B said, "I have an idea. I have made a lot of friends all over the country. I will tell them that Marlee is on her way to Colorado. She has her phone and I will tell her to call me every chance she gets. When she does I will tell my friends to keep an eye out for her. She will be looking for a job so I will also tell them why. She will be alright and of course, I won't be too far behind her."
"The first place she is going to look for is a campground to park her big Barbie camper. I have a friend named Paul that makes plans for Paul's Playhouses. He even has a campground for children. He will get her settled and let me know what is going on and keep an eye on her. I will give him a call right away."
Grandma B and Marlee's mama and daddy had lots of things to do to secretly plan a trip to Colorado. They had been there before and loved it. The mountains were so beautiful, but it was a little chilly in the mountains. Do you think that Marlee packed winter clothes, or did she just pack her swimsuit?
Did Whitlee throw away the check? Is the check still at Marleewood or is the stimulus check lost for good? Hmm well whether it is or isn't Marlee is on her way to Colorado at least that's what she thinks...
