Summary
Dear Pennies and Pallers,
We’re back with guest host and Pal Kyle Ayers! In today’s letter Laura asks if we had any obsessive tendencies as a kid that we still carry today. We also talk about the 4th of July boat parade in Lake Tapawingo, tattoos, co-opting rich kid’s hobbies, and more!
We wish you well, sincerely,
Your Pen Pals, Daniel Van Kirk and Kyle Ayers
