We played in the snow all day and even made a snowman. The snowman’s nose was NOT a carrot, it was a piece of coal! The heater was broken so it was cold at the house! We couldn’t use the fire because we needed a chimney sweep. Thankfully, the red mittens kept my hands warm. I also had a blue toboggan. Do you think of a toboggan as a hat or a sled?

    • You wish to know all about my grandfather. Well, he is nearly ninety- three years old. He dresses himself in an ancient black frock coat usually minus several buttons yet he still thinks as swiftly as ever. A long flowing beard clings to his chin giving those who observe him a pronounced feeling of the utmost respect. When he speaks his voice is just a bit cracked and quivers a trifle. Twice each day he plays skillfully and with zest upon our small organ. Except in the winter when the ooze or snow or ice prevents, he slowly takes a short walk in the open air each day. We have often urged him to walk more and smoke less but he always answers “banana oil.” Grandfather likes to be modern in his language.

I saw a squirrel and I started to chase it. I ran so fast that I got a stitch in my side. I quickly stopped and caught my breath. As I was catching my breath, I saw my friend Sally on the swings at the nearby playground. She had her dog with her. As I approached her, she also saw the squirrel run up in the tree, and her dog began to bark. We was so close, but couldn't catch it. I laughed with Sally and we went home to grab snacks and lemonade to talk about our adventure.
    • The family had been camping and fishing all day and were hungry. So, they gathered sticks and started a campfire to make s'mores. The parents lit the fire, and the kids gathered ingredients.

It was a fun day at the campsite.

    • Many complicated ideas about the rainbow have been formed. The difference in the rainbow depends considerably upon the size of the drops and the width of the colored band increases as the size of the drops increases. The actual primary rainbow observed is said to be the effect of super imposition of a number of bows. If the red of the second bow falls upon the green of the first the result is to give a bow with an abnormally wide yellow band since red and green light when mixed form yellow. This is a very common type of bow one showing mainly red and yellow with little or no green or blue.
    • Do you like amusement parks? Well I sure do. To amuse myself I went twice last spring. My most memorable moment was riding on the Caterpillar which is a gigantic rollercoaster high above the ground. When I saw how high the Caterpillar rose into the bright blue sky, I knew it was for me. After waiting in line for thirty minutes I made it to the front where the man measured my height to see if I was tall enough. I gave the man my coins asked for change and jumped on the cart. Tick tick tick the Caterpillar climbed slowly up the tracks. It went so high I could see the parking lot. Boy was I scared. I thought to myself there's no turning back now. People were so scared they screamed as we swiftly zoomed fast fast and faster along the tracks. As quickly as it started the Caterpillar came to a stop. Unfortunately, it was time to pack the car and drive home. That night I dreamt of the wild ride on the Caterpillar. Taking a trip to the amusement park and riding on the Caterpillar was my most memorable moment ever!
