Trip post #1

On Thursday we left for a trip around the country. We would have left yesterday, but the water

flooding the road was rising, and becoming undriveable. So instead of risking getting stuck, we

left before it got too bad. When we left, the water was a foot and a half deep! We had to drive slowly

through the deep water. In other places on the shoreline, there were big sticks and small logs on the road, in one place, there was a tire on the side of the road!

Then my dad, my brother and I dropped my mom off at a meeting. while she was at the meeting, we

dropped off some stuff we had for someone at their house. We also went to a scout meeting, even

though we forgot my uniform. I almost got another merit badge, but there wasn't time. I also signed

up for mynsummer camp merit badges (swimming, camping, and 1 session of sculpture for fun).

After we picked up my mom, we drove an hour to plattsburg to get away from now seperated

Isle La Motte.We stayed in a hotel where there was a drawing pad, so I drew until I ran out of paper.

Then I went to sleep.
