I went to Rifle River

this summer.

I went with a group of guys

who are my close friends.

We went tubing,

had bonfires

The flames where as tall as me,

sang along to songs.

We swam across the whole lake.

Everybody at the campsite had tents

And sleeping bags,

But I forgot mine at home,

So I had to sleep in the car

Which was fine.

We went fishing.

I didn’t catch anything huge.

I did catch a rock bass though,

But my friend Connor

Caught a 20 inch big mouth bass.

We cooked it and everything

Was very good.

Since my car has a trailer hitch

It can carry a boat

So I had to take my friend’s boat

Because he doesn’t have a hitch.

The drive up was beautiful

All the wildlife and just the nature all around

It’s just surreal

I was up close with a deer wasn’t too close

But close to see how beautiful the

Wildlife is.

 


MY LIFE IN A NUTSHELL


Max, Julius, Nick.

All of us have been on the same team since 6th grade.

I’m good at butterfly and freestyle.

My best time is 55 seconds for 100 fly.

My best time for 50 fly is 25 seconds.

My best time for 100 free is 49.5 seconds.

My best time for 50 free is 20 seconds.


I have two best friends:

1 of them is my dog Henry

And the other is my best friend

Cole.


I got my own car

It’s a blue 2002 Ford Escape

And it means so much to me

Because this is my first major responsibility.


I work at a movie theatre

Which is amazing

I get free movies

And free popcorn/drinks

But

I want to do construction when I’m older

I work with my uncle who is a licensed contractor

And I go to Otech to learn more about

Construction.

 

I COME FROM…...


I come from

Pillows and blankets

A mom and a sister

Fords and Jeeps

Arguing and love

Singing and swearing

Snorting and barking

I come from a history of scars and bumps

From family dinners and birthday cake

Christmas trees to hot chocolate.
