lol Yeah I think we did the same thing with the little slips of paper. But seriously, even if someone does write the school, once you and the other person are writing back and forth you know the address was bound to come up, like they would ask where you live so they can write to you and not have to go through the school.. or you'd put your return address on it and aquire a stalker. Good thing living on that little dinky island the balloons probably never made it over any of the ocean they needed to go over. That and it was pretty darn cold the helium probably got too cold to stay up anymore.

My son had an earthquake drill today in school. We live in Western Washington. I mean I remember having earthquake drills in grade school living out in Alaska, but here? I never had them living here. This a new thing or anyone know about more recent drills like that being included in the schools nowdays? Living on that Island we had all sorts of drills... even Air Raid drills! (Was exciting as a little kid cause we were so close to Russia at the end of the Cold War this was included in the regular scheduled drills during the school year!)
