Today I drew a Cat It was not an ordinary cat like some people draw mine was very detailed and shaded in correctly.I was very very happy with my work.I learned how to draw a cat on YouTube.It was really hard and kind of easy at the same time.At first I did not know how to draw my cats face because I could never get my circle right.I had to pause the video lots of times and made sure I had exactly what they drew so it could look good.It turned out really nice and it was a 3D cat.It first looked like it was floating in space but I put a circle around the bottom of the cat.The girl on YouTube that showed was ART – ALA – CARTE.I will show you a picture here. https://www.youtube.com/user/TheARTalaCARTE

Today I went to see the trains at Mr.Frenches house.He decided he wanted to give us a tour.So we went on the tour.He taught us all about trains.The first trains originated in the 1830’s.There Was a cool fact that  negative and positive charges are on train tracks.It was so cool he had so many trains.I think they were collecter items.He has 5 rooms of trains.And in his bacement he had coin slots and basket ball shooters and a pool table.He had lots of really interesting Lego trains.I hope i can go there next year!

Wisconsin

Salamander

Today I am going to Wisconsin to see my great grandparents. I was there before like 2 or 3 years ago.It is really cold in the winter time. Usually when I’m there I try to find salamanders. I rake their yard too so that I can earn money. We will probably go to the zoo or stay at home. I can’t wait to visit.

Pottery

On Labor Day weekend I went to Flagstaff and we first went to sunset crater and it was cool because I got to see lava rock and some of the stuff on the lava rock was fungus.That lava rock has been around 10,000 years.And it is sacred of the Sinagua tribe and their pit houses are now buried in the ground.Then we went to see the first pueblo. It was too bad we did not get to go in it but it was pretty fun seeing it too.Their houses were built out of adobe.Then we went to 2 other ones and at another one of them we saw a piece of pottery on the ground but we could not take it with us.Then next one we went to had 3 pueblos and we did not get to go inside of it because it was off a cliff and that would be too dangerous.Then after

Lava fields/sunset crater

all that we went on a trip through the woods and it was awesome and luckily there was not that many mosquitoes. We were supposed to find a ruined cabin but we could not find it. I hope I can go to those places next year.
