Hey everybody! It’s me again!
My family and I are going on a road trip again. This time we are focusing on hiking and getting lots of outside time. At the moment we are driving to a town called Gallop, NM. I am going to take lots of pictures because if I am going to be a good part of my dad’s company, I need to be good at something. I am going for animation; animated videos, sideshows, movies, etc. I already know how to use a program called Toon Boom better than my dad and his buddies. To get ready for the trip I finished my final exams on Wednesday so I could stay home Thursday to get ready. It went good, my freshman year of high school wasn’t that bad, I actually enjoyed it.
Some new things that have happened to me is that I got some braces, right before Halloween! I couldn’t believe it! Sometimes mom plans things right in the way of my personal enjoyment; candy! Oh well, they aren’t so bad now, I am actually used to them. I should get them off sometime next year… I hope.
We left the house about 4:30 pm yesterday and set off on our very long, and hopefully fun, RV adventure. We brought lots of cool stuff, board games, movies, laptops, music, our DS pokemon games, and of course the DSs. I got Jon and myself the new pokemon games, HeartGold and SoulSilver. Josh and Dan now own our old Pearl and Diamond games. We are stocked up for the trip. Oh yeah almost forgot our new navigator, a GPS. I learned to use it and was able to get us to a safe place to sleep last night; if you call a truck stop/ casino a safe place. J Well it was a good night if the casino light didn’t keep shining in my face.
This morning we woke up around 7:30am and got ready. Us kids then surprised our dad with his VERY early father’s day gift. We got him a Ukulele, a ukulele songbook, and cords to his favorite ukulele song, “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. We left around 9:00 am because dad was messing around with his new instrument. I took lots of pictures of him playing and singing in his jamies. On the road we saw like 50 or so motorcycles passing by. Dad made a joke saying “I guess crab season in Alaska is over” I laughed and added, “they must be going to Hatch, NM for the Chile season!” Well I am enjoying myself and so is everyone else. I can’t wait to get to Zion again, we are going to hike there longer because it was very enjoyable the last time we passed through. If you don’t remember it you can see it in last year’s blog trip.
I am very excited about this trip, after we get back I am going to try out for basketball and maybe even be accepted to a program called Young Women in Computing. I sent a form on why I should go, you know the drill, work real hard, get opportunity, work harder to get work done, send in form, wait for response. Well I am going to take some more pictures now, I would type more but the camera is calling out to me!
