Arkansas

Arkansas

It was a bright and sunny day. instead of running around I was stuck in a stupid hot and small car. Bored I asked my mom for the millionth time, "Are we there yet?" My mom replied "NO! Now just relax amuse yourself, we will be there in half an hour." I did just that, I let my mind wander and take over while I was doing that we had arrived. Finally I was here, in Arkansas where we would be staying for a week. I asked, "Mom can I go down to the river?" she said in a preoccupied way, "sure Honey go ahead." I went to the river and jumped in, but almost immediately jumped out because although the water didn't look it it was ICE-COLD! I sat there shivering, and my friend's mom came and asked me why I wasn't swimming. I chocked the words out through chattering teeth,"Because it is too cold, and I don't want to freeze!" My friends mom laughed and said, "Why don't you  sail a boat instead?" I said, "Because I don't have a boat." Because I didn't have a boat, my friend's mom showed me how to make one. Pretty soon I was sailing a lot of boats. When a lot more of my friends came, they also jumped in and jumped out! After that we were all sailing boats hoping the sun would come out so it wouldn't be so cold so that we could swim again. The next day we went outside and discovered that our coolers had been invaded by an army of raccoons  and all of our drinks were contaminated. When the last of our party showed up we went fishing, but bored I went back to camp and climbed Window Rock with my friends and a bunch of other people.It took a long time, but we finally reached the summit I peeked out of the hole in the rock and it really was like looking out a window! I could see everything from our campsite, to the lake where I had attempted to go fishing. When we descended I wanted to relax, but some of the others wanted to go swimming, so they did. Because of some reason I heard a lot of screaming, turns out my brother had slipped while jumping on some rocks and his knee jammed into a particularly jagged one giving himself a cut like 5in long! He was all right, so that night since not everyone had abandoned the fishing trip those who liked fish had fish and those who hated fish (like myself) had something Else.The next morning we discovered an army of angry ants underneath our dessert tray, yet after my mother screamed herself hoarse we packed up and left. I was sad because I liked it maybe you should go to Arkansas too!
