This last week I went to a Scout camp for a week. It is called Camp Daniel Boone. I took the merit badges:

Archery- Finished

Leatherworking-Finished

Fishing-Only need to catch two different types of fish to complete.

First Aid-Finished

The food wasn’t very good, plus they pile it all together, not really caring  if they put rice on top of your roast beef. (Half- cooked rice.) My campsite was about close to a mile away from the mess hall (which also happened to be where most of the badges took place.) The water was really cold, yet we still found a way to have fun- Jump into the stream! (It was colder then the lake.) After a couple of minutes, though, you start to get used to it. Meaning that you went numb. The stream ran all throughout camp, and you could often saw people fishing somewhere (mainly on the short stone bridge.) There was also a place called Boonesborough, which took about 40 minutes to get to, walking. It was mostly uphill too. (Grr!) But there they had lots of arts and crafts that you could do, and they had a tavern! It had chips, root beer, and cream soda. (All for a one time price of 19.95! Call now to get a %20 discount! 865-567-4200!) I bought a root beer. It was a brand I didn’t see much often, but it was pretty good.

APRIL FOOL’S!!!

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

It is April Fool’s day. At school as soon as the announcements were finished, we had a fire drill that lasted FOREVER!!!!!I think it was an April Fools joke, but the teachers never said April Fools. I still think that it was. Phillip rode home on the bus with me today, and after we got off a bird pooped on his head. April Fools! He really did ride home with me, though. We got to my house, then we had to do our evil homework! (EVIIIIIIIL!!!!) Then I showed him my game, Starcraft. Then we pretty much did whatever until his mom came at 6:3o (Too early!) and picked him up. Then I did study island, which is a website that Knox County Schools uses that kids can study on. Then I looked at my mom’s blog (domesticpsychology.com), and she walked in and said that I couldn’t look at her blog unless I posted often. Then I wrote this post. At the end of the post I wrote “And then I wrote this post.” And then I wrote- never mind.

Caving

Sunday, February 10th, 2008

I’m going caving next weekend with my scout troop. I hear that last year all the kids went on the hard course. There was two little kids and one of them ended up having to go home in the middle of the night with a broken wrist. That doesn’t really help my confidence… But anyway, it still sounds like fun. But don’t fear for me, for I know that you all don’t want me to die or fall or break my neck or… Never mind. My mom just asked me to stop. But anyway, this time everybody in my patrol (the newest patrol but still the most awesome) is going on the beginners so there won’t be any deaths or blood or organs or… darn it , my mom’s still watching me. But still, it sounds like fun.

I’m back! It was very fun, and at one point we had to squeeze through a hole about a 10 in. in diameter- on our back! After that, we had to crawl through Midget Madness, a tunnel shaped like a trench that had a low roof and even I couldn’t put one leg in front of the other! I had to sort of gallop my way it. Did I mention it was 30 feet long? Anyway, I had to climb up and down a rope, cross a tunnel that in the middle of it was a thin canyon that stretched down to reach even 20 feet! Some people had to carry their bags inside for about an hour and a half (WOW!) until they finally got to their campsite. Luckily for us, we were only a little ways in. I can’t wait to go again!
