Hi Everyone!
Sorry for the three month delay on posting. I almost posted in June but I never finished it.
Anyway, I hope you've had a great summer! I know I have. I think I'll list everything I've done,and then elaborate on them. Hmmmmmm........ Well let's see(Oh, by the way, this is not in order of date.)
1. Summer Concert
2. Camp China
3. Vacation
4. Birthday Parties
5. Frantically Reading
6. Finding a shard of Dumbledor's Wand(Ha, Ha, just kidding)
Hmm. Right now I can't think of anything else exciting. Oh, my cousin's graduation.
Actually, I think I'm only going to elaborate on vacation since it's late.
Well, we left a little later than we wanted to(we meaning family), and the car was packed to the brim.
Okay here's were the car ride get interesting. My brother Thomas has to pick up a cash register for this play he's doing props for(He found it over the Internet being sold at a flee market in Virginia). So, in order to get to the flee market on the way to the beach(I forgot to tell you, we were going to North Carolina) we had to go on a very congested route.Well, actually we didn't think it would be congested, but you know what I mean. Anyway, when we were on our way to the market, my Dad inquired if it would be huge or tear up the seat, and Thomas said no. So, when we arrived, his predictions were a little off. The register was about twice as big as he imagined and it weighed at least 100 pounds. It was also very awkward to sit and watch the people jam it between two seats.
Anyway, a few other funny things happened, we finally got there at 9:30 at night(It took us about 11 hours).
The beach house itself was really nice. The Family room was spacious, everybody got their own bathroom and TV in their room. It was great. The private pool was also very nice. It was never very cold. And the beach itself was wonderful. I succeeded in digging a hole to the water(digging vertically into the sand). I dug it when it was high tide though ,so, maybe that made it easier. Well, we're having a great time, we've been there for four days, we'd planned out the rest of the week and guess what happens. Dad finds out the we have to evacuate for the hurricane the next day. We all were very upset. I would miss the beach and the house we lived in, but I guess you would rather be safe than sorry.
We took our time packing up and leaving. Leaving at about three, we say goodbye to the Outer Banks for the summer.
At least we enjoyed the time we had there.
Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed this post and read past posts from this blog.
Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes. In the next post , I'll talk about the concert.
Until next time,
