Catching up

Hi this is Ben. I have left a big gap in CM information.This post is going to cover most of that gap. first of all,my grandma and step-grandpa and their dog Kodi will be leaving on monday.  I had a great time with them while they were over.Kodi even slept over at our house one night

Kodi and Evan having fun!

 On wensday the 15th we visited the Jackson street roundhouse.

 This is a snow plow train car that I really liked. It does not have its own engine,and needs another train to push it. the panels on the side with the diagonal peices fold out to plow a wider area. the peice on top with the windows on it allowed the operators a clear view of the tracks ahead.

 we got to go into a special room you can only go into with a person who works there.

there was really cool trains that were being restored there,and it was really amazing.

today,we went to the como zoo and conservatory.the picture above is of me , my dad and evan.my favorite part was the Japanese garden. It must have been hard to design,because

it was set up so that in each flowerbed,their is only one kind of flower in each bed would be  blooming at one time so that a person wouldn't be overwhelmed.also,the Japanese belived that every rock had a spirit and a face,so the designer had to choose what side of a rock to place where. Bye,Ben

Yesterday,I made peanut butter rice crispie bars with barely any help from my mom.
on monday we tie-died shirts.
also,I came up with this variation of E-I-E-I-O:
old mcdonald had a farm,E-I-E-I-O
on his farm he had a crop circle,E-I-UFO

like it ???

 

bye,Ben

I can't wait!!!

tomorrow,my grandma and step-grandpa will come over again with a GPS
collar for cody and we will figure out something fun to do with it. Mr.Ed (my step-grandpa)
has planned to hide with cody in our yard and then I will find them using the GPS.

               Bye,Ben
