Carnival Rides

    My favorite carnival ride is the squirrel cages. They go up side down, rock back and fourth, and if you want to you can get the cage your in stuck upside down. The ride looks really cool at night. It lights up with bright green, and yellow. It sands up really high too, it looks really scary when you first see it, but its a lot of fun.

    The ride is about 15 minutes long. The bad thing is you have to wait for a really long time to get on the ride, because the line is so long. You can only have two people in one cage, and you have to sit down. They put like a seat belt on you, and they have to hook it really tight, if not you might fall out. The cages are round, and they have like a stiring wheel in it, and if you hook it on one of the hooks the cage will stay upside down.

   My first time I ever got on one was when I was eight. Me and my friend got on and it was really bad at first. Our cage we got into would get stuck a lot, and you couldn't get it unstuck. After a couple of times getting on the squirrel cages if got to be more fun. I didn't like how the cages made nosie, it would creek,and it sounded if you were going to falll out.

Forest Festival

                                                         Mountain State Forest Festival

                    They have music, games, carnival rides, art shows, and lots of stuff going on in Elkins. They have the carnival set up by the train station. They have food vendors, games, and little kid rides. In the park they have dock dogs, little kid train rides, t-shirts for sale, and lots of little shops that sell stuff. At D&E college they have a art show. The people at the art show get judged on how good their art work is. Then after that they can sell the stuff they make. Some people make home made food and sell it up there also.
  
                   They also have a three major parades. Then they have the coronation, with maid sivila, and her royal court. They have irsh road bowling. There is a old car race up at the air port. During the Mountain Sate Forest Festival there are a lot of people who comin from out of town. Usually if you didn't make a reservation for a hotel room it will be really hard to find one.

                The Mountain State Forest Festival stays in for about a week or a little more. They even have a pet show at the Elkins High School. In the D&E feilds they have a lumber jack game. They even have irsh road bowling.

The Bill Of Rights

                                                         Second Amendment

    I like the second amendment, because it has the right to bear arms. That means we can have our guns to go hunting and we have them for safety. If we wouldn't have the right to own guns then the people who always break the law would have guns and we couldn't be able to protect ourselves. We wouldn't even be able to have guns to go hunting.
   Some people say that we shouldn't be able to have guns because of to much violence, then we couldn't protect ourselves. That's why I think we should have the right to bear arms so we can protect ourselves, and so we can go hunting.

                                         

Things I would Change

  I would change school to wear we go year around, and we would go to nine a.m. to one p.m. We should get ipads because, some of the kids don't have computers. I think on the ipads the school sould put microsoft office word, and on itunes that they have on the ipad, we should have the company that makes our books in class make a book that we could put on the ireader. It would be really nice if the school could get us ipads or if you have a ipad you could bring to school so you don't have to carry all of those books with you.

The school lunch should be a lot better, be healthy and look healthy. They should have like flavored water or a diet pop, in stead of the milk and juice that have lots of carbs and sugars. The people that work in the kitchen need to wear gloves and hair nets. They need to have more food to chose from, and we need to have healthy salad on the salad bar.

 The should let you have your ipods out, and if you chose to have you ipod out then do your work thats your chose. I think we should be able to use phones in class as long as we are not loud and disturbe the class. We should be aloud to have food, and drinks in class, as long as we are quite. If the school could do some of these thing it would be so much better for the kids.

Fall

 In the fall my favorite things to do are going four-wheeler riding, hunting, and playing basketball. In the middle of fall we have a Forest Festival. They have a craft show, stuff set up in the Elkins park, and they have a carnival that comes in to. The Forest Festival has three parades.

They have a ATV race for the Forest Festival to. The Festival stays in for almost a week. Hunting season also comes in around fall. I go squirrel hunting in the middle of fall. Squirrel hunting is a lot of fun, but some people can't sit still long enough to hunt, and there not to quiet. 

Missing You

         I had a black lab named Max. He passed away when I was around five. My grandpa, and me would take him to my grandpas car bussines. We could let him in the office, and he would be like a watch dog.      When someone would walk in, he'd stare at them and, bark really loud.
        Every time we had to take him to the vet we'd have to get a pack of cookies just to get him in the car. After we got him in the car we would have to sit with him and, feed him half a pack of cookies. Then when we got done at the vet we would take him through the dairy queen drive through and, get Max his ice cream.
      When we would try and give Max a bath he would run off. If you would say the word bath he would run and, hide. Once my mom and, dad tried to give him a bath. When my dad was getting the water hose ready and the soap, my mom took and walked him around the house and tied him up to his chain. My dad started to bring the water hose over and Max saw what my mom and, dad were brining he started to pull on his chain and, growl.

      Then one day my mom picked me up from school she told me that Max had passed away. I was up set for a really long time, and I still miss him a lot.
