Fall is Here!

Well...I don't know that it is my favorite season of the year....but I do love fall. I do like the excitement of the coming Christmas season.

My favorite season however is not fall, and it is not winter. It is Spring! Just the word "spring" makes me happy. I love the begining of a new year. I like all the flowers, baby chicks, and all that other good stuff. This last year we didn't have any baby chicks, but I am planning on hatching some this spring.

Well I guess I'd better tell what I've been up to. Let's see....

I don't think I told about our trip to the capital....but I'm sure you've already heard about it from other blogs. Yes, that was a fun trip. I especially liked the capital. I think I'm going to be a congressman when I grow up....

Anyway.... We had a young people's party where I proved that I wasn't a pro at foosball. Bro. Andy, Bro. Luis, Chelsea, and Karlina hold that position. I'm just a beginner. But I plan on getting better.

I'm been busy mostly with school. I haven't had anytime to plan for anything here on the mini-farm. I wanted to get sheep in the spring but it doesn't look like we'll be able to with this economy. I may just have to wait a few more years until I get my own place.... I think I'm gonna be a farmer when I grow up....

I've been reading a book called "A Season of Fire". It is very good. I talks about all the big fires where firefighters died in the line of duty. Some of the fires it talks about are the South Canyon fire, the Man Gulch Fire, the Big Blowup, and the Thirtymile fire. I don't know what it is about firefighting that facinates me. Now that I am studying chemistry, I've learned some about the chemistry of fire. It is absolutely facinating.

Many people don't know about these people called "Hotshots" or "Smokejumpers". They are really neat guys. You don't hear about them much because they fight the wild fires. I think that would be fun to do... Maybe I'll be a smokejumper when I grow up....

I can't decide what field I want to go into. I would really like to be a conductor....I think that would be an awesome job. My teacher always tells me how great it felt when she conducted an orchestra. I can only imagine.

I also like the medical field...I always like helping sick people.

So that's the scoop.... I need to stop writting because I need to start studying. See you all later! Have a GREAT weekend!
