-----------------------------------------------

You are going to want a bowl of popcorn and a cup of hot chocolate because you are not going to want to stop reading my essay. In Lincoln 2071 I would be 58 years old and what do I see Lincoln as? I see a beautiful city with flowers, bushes and different trees with lot of different animals and more parks then when I was little so my family can have lots of places to play. I also want there to be more ponds, rivers, and lakes. Another thing is I don't want it to be so cold that I can't wear my shorts and tank tops all year long because I like it warm. I am now going to tell you what I think should stay the same. The most important thing is that we have more nice people than mean people so we can help each other out like we did during the big snow storm of 2021. Businesses what about businesses? I'll tell you. I would like there to be a lot of businesses like museums, art galleries, fashion designers and bakeries so that people have good jobs and be able to afford nice houses. Also it would help with taxes. But the one thing I would love to see is flying cars because it would be super duper cool. I hope you liked my essay. I had fun writing it and can't wait to see Lincoln's future.
