He saw lots of fun things, like t-shirts, in the dealer's room. Then, he attended the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.

Pitzelpatz got just as bored as the kids while waiting for the middle school orchestra meeting to get over with!

Garnett, KS, USA - 25th August 2011
By: MamiTig
Today Pitzelpatz went to work in Garnett with host mom, and on the way they stopped to take a look at the ethanol plant. The plant distills corn into ethanol for a gasoline replacement, and the byproduct is used for a high protein cow feed. The plant smells like fresh baked bread.

Hancock Fabrics, Overland Park, KS, USA - 27th August 2011
By: MamiTig
Pitzelpatz went on a road trip to one of host mom's very favorite shopping spots: Hancock Fabrics! First, they looked through the pattern books. Then, Pitzelpatz admired some lovely green ribbons. The cart was starting to get full! Pitzelpatz wondered if he could ever figure out how to run a serger machine. He wandered through the craft books, looking for something to learn.

Pitzelpatz wasn't sure if he wanted to get out of the car at the garden because it was so hot today, but he decided he needed to take a closer look at the sunflowers!

Pitzelpatz took a walk over to the Hillbrant House to see the late summer garden. He heard it's the prettiest garden in town and... it is, remaining lovely even in late summer.

Pitzelpatz and the other TVs visited the Russel Stover candy factory's gift store today. He found some "blooper" carrots and explored the many colors/flavors of jelly bellies. He was sure glad they bought some chocolate for home!
