This was it - Sarah Jo Foster's last year of school! Even though it was home school, it was still school. Being finished - graduating - was a big deal. She knew her friends Abby Jacobs and Callie Morris were just as excited. For that matter, so were Wendy Granton and Laura Sanders who lived in faraway Addison where Sarah Jo had once lived. But now she was back in Pine Moor where life had begun for her. It would always be home no matter where she went. She called Abby to see about planning a get-together. Callie could be a part of it if she wanted too also.
"Hi Abby, what are you up to?"
"Not much, just fixing a sandwich."
"Really? Kinda early for lunch, isn't it?"
"I didn't have any breakfast."
"Hey Ab, I was just thinking about getting together and doing something. Got any ideas, that is if you can come over?"
"Wanna hang out at Connie's Cocoa Cottage for awhile?"
"Sure, I s'pose we could go there, It's a ways to walk but I need the exercise anyway," said Sarah Jo. "Should we ask Callie too?"
"Okay, I'll call her. For what time?"
"Let's make it for one-thirty."
"Okay, I'll be there for sure, and Callie too if she can make it. See ya."
