Connor's Gibson Adventure





We live in Gibsons, we have had a awesome adventure checking out the town. We also have been checking out the scenery. There is water falls, boats, deer, geese, library and most of all the nature.
The waterfalls we have seen are located in Cliff Gilker Park. It is a pretty cool park to explore and discover neat trees and trails. There is two waterfalls at the park, they are not huge but are still pretty cool.
We saw lots of boats by the water, but the best one was the Beach Combers boat they had up by Molly's Reach. My sister decided to climb on the ropes they had around the boat and they broke. Mom tried to fix the rope, but couldnt because the tape they had on it would'nt hold, so mom put it down and said lets just leave, someone will fix it. They did fix it later on, when we went back to see the boat with dad the rope had been fixed with a nail.
There is lots of wildlife here. Everytime we go for a walk we run into at least two deer. They like to stand there and watch us as we go by. We have also seen lots of geese coming back for summer. The geese are kinda dirty though cause the poo everywhere.
We also have been spending lots of time in the library, we can take home 40 books, thats a lot of books to read in 3 weeks. We also like to grab movies, we have watched Narnia, Lady and the Tramp 2, Karate Dogs and other cool movies. I have also been able to get video games for school there, like Math Blaster.
We have lots of things to still explore in Gibsons, there is many trails to check out and soon we will have our bikes so we can go bike around. I am very excited to see more of Gibsons and am looking forward to the hike down to the ocean when Late For Dinner gets here.
So far Gibsons has been pretty cool , and we have been busy. It is going to get busier though, cause we have swimming lessons, baseball and Hailie has ballet. Yucky ballet! Soon hopefully mom will remeber to sign me up for Sea Kayaking.

Puerto Rico


One day, when we were in Puerto Rico dad came home from work, he had caught a blind snake. He brought it up to the porch to show us.

When we held it, it felt very bony and very very very very werid. The snake was scallie and grey in color. It was the strangest snake I have ever seen. He looked more like a earth worm than a snake.

We decided to let the cat play with it, the crazy old cat bated it around with his paws trying to figure out what it was. It was sorta funny to watch him, he would bat it and then run away and then bat it again.

We eventually let him go. We dug a hole in the dirt so that the cat couldnt get him anymore.

He was very neat, but I feel bad that the cat got to bat him cause I think he was bleeding from the cats sharp nails.
