This is the magnum opus of my high school career, and contains some of my best drawings of Number Five to date. I think I started this calendar because I was always a big fan of cool calendars, but I always wanted one with Johnny Five on it. I guess deep down I was also hoping that it might be published someday. It is the story of Johnny Five's travels around the country and the world. He writes letters to his friends back home and sends pictures of his adventures. I still enjoy reading it. |

at the movies Dear Stephanie, I went to a movie the other night. Benjamen and Fredrick said it would be a lot of fun. -Could not find a place to sit; so I stood. I can't remember what the show was about. -Was too busy moving out of people's way. The popcorn was good though. Love, Johnny |

at the Hollywood sign Dear Newton, The movie I saw was so full of input, -figured this place would be loaded with it. So here I am in Hollywood! Everyone at the movie place kept telling me which set to report to. Weird, huh? Here's a picture of me and a very famous person. And I still can't find that big sign that says "Hollywood." Love, Johnny |

in Las Vegas Dear Benjamen, -Have Discovered interesting Human pastime called "gambling." I figured out a system to everything, but now they won't let me play cards here anymore.

at the Grand Canyon Dear Benjamen and Fredrick, The Grand Canyon certainly is grand! Lots of input, especially from the air. But the people thought I was crazy for jumpung. They must not have known I could fly. Of course it also could have been that they knew about the climb back to the top. Boy! What a tread-ache! Love, Johnny |

at the airport Dear Banjamen, -Not much to say right now. I am stuck in the airport. Don't worry. They'll let me on the plane - if it ever gets here. I'm bored. -Have read every magazine in the gift shop. -Am not sure if flying tourist class is too much better than traveling in a box. Love, Johnny |

at Carlsbad Cavern Dear Banjamen, I stood in a cavern all day one day, I watched the water falling from one rock. At the end of my observation the rock looked the same as before. But in a million years when we are somewhere else and not on earth, and that rock is one inch longer, I will be able to say that I spent one day of my life watching it grow. Love, Johnny |

at the Berlin Wall Dear Stephanie, Once when I was sad about all the sad things happening in the world, you told me things would change someday.

on the way to Oregon This was as far as I got. I did not complete through June 1990 as planned. I never even wrote Johnny's letter for this page. He was on his way back to Oregon to check out the "old neighborhood." I suppose he wanted to see where he was born. |
