My Epic Summer

Well, i had a pretty good Summer, i went places, saw people, and did things. I did a lot of things from fishing in Oak Lake to seeing the first satellite ever in space, to eating cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory. It was a great summer, and I'm going to tell you some of my favourite highlights







So summer started when grade 7 ended, i didn't actually do a whole lot at the start of summer because my dad was working since all the crops flooded and water was rising. On his days off we went fishing, flying my RC plane or watching a movie, on the days he was working i hung out with friends or went biking. So yeah the start of summer was a bit slow, that's basically what i did for three quarters of the summer (it got pretty boring) but near the end, I went to Washington D.C (everyone keeps reminding how I said D.C) it was AWESOME, i saw the first plane ever made, its called the Wright Flyer! I went in these huge trains in huge underground tunnels called the Metro, I saw a nuclear missile, i touched a rock that was on the moon, I EVEN ATE SPACEMAN FOOD!!!! The White House was neat, even though there were people on the roof that looked like snipers or something and a guy behind the gate a few meter away holding a submachinegun. I saw a whole ton load of monuments like big old Honest Abe and Jefferson. Have you seen the movie National Treasure? The one with Nicholas Cage in it? well i saw the Declaration of Independence which is a big part of that, and i saw a few other documents like that. Well i could go on for a while so I will say just a few more highlights, I saw a whole bunch of dinosaur bones and caveman tools and even found out what i would look like as a Neanandrethal! Don't i have a big nose? Anyways i saw the T-Rex that was in Night at the Museum, i saw Dorothy's slippers from Wizard of Oz, The original Muppet's, Michal Jackson's hat, and a huge olden day steam engine, and a lot more but that's all I will say, On the plane ride back i was very close to being sick but luckily i didn't, when I landed in Bismark I definitely was not used to the cold, and when I got to Virden I was freezing. Washington used to be sort of a swamp so it is very hot. And that was my summer!



So now I'm all done typing, I hope you read the whole thing and enjoyed it, I sure enjoyed typing. Smeckdog Out!
