Laurabeard’s Favorite Fall Activity

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is my report on my favorite fall activity this year. Last weekend we organized a trip out to the country because Sparky’s Uncle Arte was going to have a bonfire. Arte helps out at his friend’s farm and he asked us to come along and help clean up. We all put on some old clothes and when we got there we helped Arte collect all the loose leaves, and gather twigs and branches lying around in the fields. We made a circle of rocks in an open space and then threw all the yard waste into the middle.

Arte told us all to stand back and then he lit the fire. It was so big!!! We had collected so many dried leaves and twigs that it just started crackling right away and next thing the flames were leaping up to the sky. We kept on working, collecting more and more twigs and leaves and throwing them on, and then when we had picked up most of the yard waste, Arte brought out some hot dogs for us to roast over the fire.  Mmm! I’ve never had hot dogs cooked over a fire before. They were awesome!

Then Arte took us all for a hay ride around the farm in a wagon. It was such a great day! I think I’d like to live on a farm some day.

    Lillyluvie I wish I had a tree that I could jump off of! Narnia, I love APPLE CIDER! MDIchickadee, you’re right. It is a ton of work! But it would be fun, too. My fav fall activity is eating popcorn and hot chocolate while walking around our yard playing games with my friend <3

    Farms are fun, farm work is satisfying, but it is work, and pretty much all the time!!

    My favorite fall activity is climbing to the top of the huge pine trees in our neighbors yard and sitting up there and thinking of new stories to write, and new adventures to have. Then I go back inside and make hot apple cider! Yum!

    HamsterLover, I think the pets you have should still be allowed in adventure park, too. I have a koala, but adventure park won’t work.

    I live in the country. =) I like walking, horse back riding, and lots of other stuff. Climbing trees and trying to catch frogs/toads and looking at the turtles(in our pond) is fun, but you can do that mainly in the summer.

    omgi luuuuuuuuvvvvv the room so cool i wish i had that room i my house!

  7. HamsterLover says:

    OH! What a pretty room… Wish I was that good of a designer… Plus I’m not e-store… Or adventure park… Even though I DO have those pets, I got them before it opened. Who thinks they should still be allowed in the adventure park?

  8. SapphireSea says:

    Nice room! I wonder where the waterfall came from? Let me guess- eStore. Either that or the adventure park. So much for that idea! Anyway, it sounds like you had fun, and that’s good, but trust me, you DON’T want to do all the gardening that comes with a farm, it’s aweful.

      My favorite Fall activity is raking up ALL of the leaves in my backyard. We have this tree with tall branches that you can climb, so we climb up it, and jump into the huge pile! :D My sister was scared at first (because she doesn’t like jumping off of trees) but then she said it was fun afterwords. And it IS fun!

            Laurabeard, in school my class is talking about making a catchy beginning to and essay, report, story, or paragraph. I might tell you that your beginning is boring and she will pretend to snore. Anyway, you could start the report by saying “Let’s make a bonfire!” said Sparky’s Uncle Arte. Or something like that. :) ;) ~:: kkf~~kinzklipfan~~ :: $

            Here I am, commenting on a laptop in the back of the car while my dad changes a tire… :roll: My cousin and sister throw leaves at eachother in the yard, and they rough house all day long…with occasional visits to the pond in our neighborhood where we found Tom

        My favorite fall activity is… um… Well we don’t have any trees that make lots of leaves. Well I gues my favorite activity for fall is decorating the house! LOL.

      • WebkinzLover200010 says:

        Sounds really cool… I wish I could do it at my house but all we have are palm trees :( If I jumped off a palm tree into palm fronds that would hurt… really bad. Hope you have fun doing it this year!
