There I earned my forester,naturalist,outdoorsman ,and my geoligist. I got to do a zipline, make a rabbitfur pouch, and do archery. I also got to eat tinfoil dinners and some cobbler. Even though we got rained on a little it was still fun.GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-36022202105128101872009-06-08T20:37:00.000-07:002009-06-08T20:41:33.269-07:00I am finaly done with school.

My friend and I did a tag tram but we only had to do 2 things. We both did both of them.We did a bike a bike section which was 12 miles long.Then we ran a 5k.By the end we were exhausted. Right now I want to fall asleep and never wake up. It was hard because we were competing against adults so we got last place which technicly is firs place in our division since we were the only kids there. I think it was really fun except when you get side aches.GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-34540915284345067192009-03-14T08:45:00.000-07:002009-03-15T13:36:10.102-07:00Mexico<div> So on my last post I forgot to go into detail about Mexico so here it is. First we went to Phoenix like I told you . After that we drove down. It was only about 4 hours so I didn't take anything to do in the car. We ended up leaving a little late so we got there when it was late. We never got to see the view that night. We had a delicious dinner then we played a game called bananagrams. It was a speed scrabble and it was so hard playing against Abe. He kept winning. Then everybody went into teams. I ended up being with Abe so I was super happy. We won almost every single game.When we all woke up the next morning we almost fainted.There was a beautiful ocean in front of the house that we were staying in. We went o through the day relaxing and having fun. We played Trivia Pursuit after that . After that we went to the market and I got some turtles for me and my best friend Brian.The next day we had to leave and so we went out to eat for lunch. My dad took me with him outside to the market and got me a nice blue blanket. Well that's pretty much Mexico. Oh! I forgot Sarah got stung by a sting ray it was crazy.</div><br /><div> </div>GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-52530116629661241222009-03-13T20:23:00.000-07:002009-03-15T13:34:19.102-07:00vacationWe are just ending a huge vacation and it has been awesome.First we came here to Pheonix to play around for day.Then we went to Mexico for three days.After that we came back here to play around.

It was so fun ,Rocky and I went on almost all of the rides. But right when it was our turn to go on Thunder mountain they shut it down, we went to splash mountain instead. It was my first time on all of the roller coasters and that stuff .I loved Indiana Jones it was so fun. I also went on Pirates. Space Mountain was sooooo cool.Me and Naomi loved peter pans flight and toads wild ride. We also went on the dumbo ride and the rockets.<br />I love how on Indiana Jones you are in a jeep and you get to go on a track. There are spiders and bugs crawling on the wall and there are really cool things around you. The last thing on it you see Indiana Jones hanging on a rope in front of you and a huge ball starts rolling towards you and all of the sudden you go down into a pit.We ate at the hungry bear. Me and Naomi got something called a kids pack. It is the strangest thing ever. It has apples,a drink,goldfish, cheese,and yogurt.My mom and my dad said that we could get a souvenir so I got a Mickey Mouse shirt.So I think Disneyland is one of my favorite theme parks.GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-31370189291756742922008-06-20T17:14:00.000-07:002008-09-14T22:15:55.397-07:00Summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiLJEoATmUM0MiOmdoDQaSMiw-VEF1JcY42Rqlea2vKp5Wxuu-QQ6UgHNDfg6xnODunt4eDMvlSGXx98gnTldt_G6p03PKJjS2pcaucD7LLqiHjEUzVnfHo7RP1AuvYFeRx56pRGJr0m8/s1600-h/002.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiLJEoATmUM0MiOmdoDQaSMiw-VEF1JcY42Rqlea2vKp5Wxuu-QQ6UgHNDfg6xnODunt4eDMvlSGXx98gnTldt_G6p03PKJjS2pcaucD7LLqiHjEUzVnfHo7RP1AuvYFeRx56pRGJr0m8/s320/002.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244618076371317538" border="0" /></a>Here is one of the things I made in pottery class, it was really fun to make other stuff too!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiLJEoATmUM0MiOmdoDQaSMiw-VEF1JcY42Rqlea2vKp5Wxuu-QQ6UgHNDfg6xnODunt4eDMvlSGXx98gnTldt_G6p03PKJjS2pcaucD7LLqiHjEUzVnfHo7RP1AuvYFeRx56pRGJr0m8/s1600-h/002.JPG"></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNdi31jk13DTMuT7LObBBVPf3P-SuO76Ll0wE7spbPQIV09K-GmKhxkuX10l0dJDx4-yLRy6UufCPHuTmz6yO3w4aH3m1vr-SppP4pRXBpwaIM1R4oTZezbLYZ94qTkvPHm7vS22WuMvY/s1600-h/004.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNdi31jk13DTMuT7LObBBVPf3P-SuO76Ll0wE7spbPQIV09K-GmKhxkuX10l0dJDx4-yLRy6UufCPHuTmz6yO3w4aH3m1vr-SppP4pRXBpwaIM1R4oTZezbLYZ94qTkvPHm7vS22WuMvY/s320/004.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244618074961706258" border="0" /></a><br />This is another one we made too.

It's really fun you get to do Pottery , Art, Cooking , music, and dance .At the end of the two weeks we do an art show they display everything and we get to perform too. Other than that I've been playing with friends and going to the skate park. I think next month I'm going to do some Science camps. So lately I've had an interest in Human Anotomy and as I'm only nine my friends don't even know what it even is. Well I'm thinking I'll have a good summer.GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-29401887218627694842008-05-15T16:47:00.000-07:002008-05-16T21:41:45.010-07:00Saturday's Races<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicj-3wTEEk5WKjkqjjjGUZdM_4g_y-3KLD6-elVP6Ap1cihFrTNqAeE2EiW397_U63xpoSPxnbZBEcu0C6-PII2VC0MJjairUG9flMgTUiWetK-O4Ws979MXiZJTC4cZ60Abnf-ZisLsI/s1600-h/Sherwood+Hills+019.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicj-3wTEEk5WKjkqjjjGUZdM_4g_y-3KLD6-elVP6Ap1cihFrTNqAeE2EiW397_U63xpoSPxnbZBEcu0C6-PII2VC0MJjairUG9flMgTUiWetK-O4Ws979MXiZJTC4cZ60Abnf-ZisLsI/s320/Sherwood+Hills+019.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5201200802295610626" border="0" /></a>So on Saturday I did my two races. Of course they were both muddy and sloppy, but they were both great. The first one I did was the Sherwood Hills. That was the one that I won last year. I guess the people who were in charge were up there shoveling snow for like a week! This year I was in the ten to twelve group. Last year my time was the time of the ten to twelve group winner doing two laps, I only did one. So at the finish line we were all ready , all of our hearts were racing. When the guy said go I was off. The guy said we should only do 5 laps even though we were supposed to do 6. I started off really slow and not very good. We started off on a hill s it wasn't that easy. Me and another guy's pedals clipped together. After the hill you would turn right. From there on it downhill switchbacks. On the third lap I passed big herd of people. That put me in third. On the final lap I passed one more person that put me at second. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ordd4i1KBGn8Ji3O4RtEs18l8GWErba69lBaWaufM2K5FcKClFMRAoWcM7ThlaTqGrdNXj_4qszxsznWkNo7YeunVPr-TKEkZtCKOSES_WF2gjZ-q914dc6O4_pWzOL8cQ9PUIUQXIk/s1600-h/Sherwood+Hills+022.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ordd4i1KBGn8Ji3O4RtEs18l8GWErba69lBaWaufM2K5FcKClFMRAoWcM7ThlaTqGrdNXj_4qszxsznWkNo7YeunVPr-TKEkZtCKOSES_WF2gjZ-q914dc6O4_pWzOL8cQ9PUIUQXIk/s320/Sherwood+Hills+022.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5201201652699135250" border="0" /></a>I kept it up for the entire race. I finished in second and I was standing on the podium. On the second race I did the health days it was a ten mile race with lots of snow I finished first out of all of the kids. I won a lantern and had a great time. So by the time me and my dad were muddy and drenched. I had a great day even if I was soaked and my legs hurt.GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-34613694880443498972007-11-13T15:50:00.000-08:002007-11-14T07:04:00.159-08:00third racemy third race was truely threatening it was beat up muddy and tight turns I was able to do better on the barriers but I barely caught seventh which was pretty good other than the fact that the people in front of me were in high school .Plus I guess that it was the state championships than I did pretty good oh!my mom will be putting a video up of it so stay in touch!GManhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09994148902449019471noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687962159202115984.post-9499302243605813282007-10-21T07:00:00.000-07:002007-10-24T21:41:14.551-07:00my trainingI was going up a steep hill thinking ''what will be when I grow up?''As you might know most four year olds think a doctor an astronaut but I thought a biker then I hesitated,OK maybe I will be an astronaut too.Then about a year later I thought ,it will take quite a bit of training. And now here I am done two bike races the first one I ended up getting first and second I got third and if it wasn't for a 15 year old and a 14 year old I would have won.
