The Awesome Water Park





and i got to go swimming in the pool and i got to go to a waterpark.

one of the slides was pitch black, it was called the purple haze. it's like you got swallowed by a monster and it started walking. i rode it 3 times. i wasn't scared at all (only the first time). then i went on the blue slide, it was called the tube blaster. it would get water in your eyes and mouth, unless you had goggles and kept your mouth shut. there were also 4 slides that you rode on your bottom. and the first one went really, really fast if you laid down.

the second one had a little cave......so you would twirl around and around until you came to the tunnel where you would slant down for 1 foot. you get water in your mouth on that slide too, but i always closed my mouth right before i landed. i rode that slide twice.

the third was just wacky! it was sooo fast......it was called the devil's corkscrew.

the fourth slide went zig-zag, up and down, all around.

there was a different slide that you used an innertube on......it was called the river slide. you get stuck in little pools and you have to fight to get out. once your out the current takes you downstream really fast until you hit the next pool! sometimes you get so stuck that someone else has to push you out.

The Great Racoon

My sister made this video..it's so cute... (syd wrote that)
(second racoon video)



i saw a racoon in Leavenworth, WA.

it was really dark out when i saw my first racoon of my life. it was about 9pm.

then the next morning i saw my second one. it was a baby racoon that lost it's mother. he was curled into a little ball on the sidewalk, in the hot sun. then my mom tried to help him get into the bushes with a few cardboard boxes. (the movie above is my mom trying to move him).

so i had to get packing and so i had to leave the racoon in the bushes. i wanted to see him again. we finally left leavenworth, washington.
