Caving

I don't know if all of you know but I went caving during the summer for a high adventure. I had lots of pictures and a lot of stories. I got bigtime dirty. After I went caving Mom and Dad soaked my clothes four times before the water wasn't pure black. Some of the times you had to get wet and sometimes you had to go through pure mud.

In this picture I just crawled through 3 feet of dirty water because there is no way around it. It was called the Birth canal because you had to get wet to go through. It was also a tight squeeze.








In this other picture if you didn't have your body the right way you would get stuck. This is the only place I actually got clostrophobic. Its called the keyhole because your body had to be the right way to fit through.








In this picture we all said that a spider was in the hole and that it dragged you down into it. To get out you had to fight it.

A boating campout

This weekend I went on a campout and on the campout we went skiing and wakeboarding and tubing I didn't get any pics of skiing but, boating was the funnest thing i've ever done in my life. The first time I went skiing I got up and the third time I went wakeboarding I got up. Even if when I was younger I skiied. It's different because that time the skiies were tied together. When I was younger I also tried to learn to wakeboard but it was just to hard. I hope all of you liked my wipeout at the end of the clip.

I also climbed trees there and my dinner was a bag of chips, a sub and a 2 liter bottle of rootbeer. For breakfast I had donuts and rootbeer. It was really good. One of my teachers tried to go barefooting(skiing on your bare feet) but it was to choppy. When you go barefooting you need to have water that looks like glass. When I went wakeboarding I was up for 3 minutes. I did better on skiing and wakeboarding than any other kid except those that own boats.

Now the troop calls me merman because I am really good at watersports. I told them how chad is really good so they think I have the same genes as him. All of these were taken with my awesome digital camera. We are going on another boat campout this next month because everyone loved this campout so much.

The picture with me in a tree, I was about 20 feet in the air and if I fell I would have broken a lot of bones. But I like doing crazy things so I had an awesome time.

Joining the club.


Summer is great but I start high school on August 25th and I'm so excited, jk. I hope it's fun. All my classes are going to be honors, I just wish they would be easy like middle school. Summer was fun, I got to go on a lot of trips. I've only slept in my bed about 25 days out of the whole summer. I hope all of you have had as much fun as me. You would be so jealous if you heard what I do on all of my camp outs. On the last one I went caving and kayaking. And the next one I'm going boatin, haha.
