20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA

People think that there’s a huge Narwhal attacking every ship it sees in the Ocean. Ned is the king of all the harpooners. Professor Aronnaut study’s the world’s oceanshe is always interested in learning more about oceans and sea life. So he has joined with the crew of the Abraham Lincoln to hunt the Narwhal. They have a great metal war ship.


Ned really is not interested in hunting the Narwhal because he doesn’t believe one exists. However, early the next morning when on lookout Ned see’s what looks like the Narwhal and said “ahoy ahoy there she blows” every hand on deck grabbing there harpoons and readying the cannons. But nothing stops the Narwhal?


The Narwhal tears through the ship and sinking the war ship. Ned and Professor Aronnaut fall off the ship into the ocean. A strange glow appears and the Narwhal surfaces under Ned and Professor Aronnaut find themselves out of the water and metal platform. Is it a submarine or the Narwhal? No! It’s a submarine that looks like a Narwhal about 3,000 feet long!



A few minutes later a hatch opened on top of the submarine. Ned and Professor Aronnaut can hear voices deep in the submarine. Captain Nemo steps and with his crew and takes them down into the belly of the beast. The caption gives them dry clothes and strange food. He seems like a very nice man.


He tells them they can never leave the Nautilus, as no one will ever know of its existence. The next day he takes them to his library which has 12,000 books and says he has read them all. Then he takes them to the art and history room with treasures he found on the ocean floor.



Later they learn he is a billionaire because of the treasure he finds. Secretly he gives some of his wealth to countries to help fight for there freedom. He travels around the world. He also tells them that he is not only the captain but that he designed and built the Nautilus. He fights sharks, squids and ice caves to explore the ocean floor. But he really misses his wife and kids, they are dead.


At the end the Natilus encounters a storm and the ship seems to sink. Ned and Professor Aronnaut fall off the submarine and are found by a fisherman. They are excited to have lived through the journey to there freedom.

Abri and I want to tell you about our day!  Abri came to visit from her grandma's house and we did school together.  After school, we played a memory game with bird cards, we beat mom/Aunt Cindy it was a blast! 

This afternoon mom went for a walk and we rode our bikes to Twin Rocks Cafe.  When we got there Abri and I ate chicken tenders, but mom/Aunt Cindy didn't eat.  The food was soooooooooooooooooooo good.  After eating we all went back home to the Desert Rose Inn.  Thank you for reading our story.

CAMPING W/ BOY SCOUT TROOP



I'm going to tell you a story about going camping at Recapture Reservoir. First, we went to Clark’s to shop for food and stuff to make dutch oven cobbler. Then all the Boy Scouts in my troop hooked the trailer to dad's Durango, put our food in the cooler, and off we go! When we got there everybody starts setting up their tents. Next, we collect wood for the fire, I got a piece of tissue and my lighter, started the tissue on fire and put it on the wood to start the fire. After the fire is started all of us grab a kayak and go out to the freezing cold water. 

Some of us fall in the water, like I did. But, it was still fun to kayak. After that all of us brought the kayaks onto the shore and dumped the water from the boat. We were ready to eat so we started cooking the cobbler and root beer rice and chicken. Yummy it was delicious! We ate and ate and ate and then told stories. I told them about the hot air balloon festival in January. After we finish telling stories we get a plate of dutch oven chocolate cobbler.

When it got dark, we all sang songs and then went to bed. In the morning we got up and made breakfast and went kayaking again, this time everybody went this time it was a blast.
