Hello! day 28 was another good day. we were going to a cabin with my friend Jordan! the whole day was packing and driving, and we met a couple dogs whose owner also visits the cabin. we didn’t do much on the drive that was interesting, but we did stop for ice cream! there was a lot more fun stuff during the rest of the trip. so, that’s all for now. but I’ll have more to say soon! bye! -Colin

Hello! day 27 was a busy day. I had a slow start, but Daddy was busy. our new couch arrived, and he got it set up. then we went for a run, because i needed some exercise and saw a deer just walking across the road only a few meters away! once we got back, we went out for lunch with my great aunt and great uncle, to a place called Luckett’s Vineyard. the restaurant is very good, and they are well known for having a working phone box in the middle of their fields. customers are allowed to use it too. we had a good lunch and drove back through some very, very heavy rain. when we got back i wrote a few blogs, and we finished up the day. Bye! -Colin

Hello! day 26 was another busy day. when i got up, Daddy was busy getting some chores done. i got dressed and ate some breakfast, and then i cleaned off some chairs that Daddy had picked up from the side of the road. once i was done that, we went out on some errands. we went to the mall first to buy some fancier clothes for a funeral that is happening soon. we only had success finding pants and shoes, and the pants we had to wait a few days to get. then we went to the grocery store, picked up everything on our list, and came back home. we then had some soup, and went to bed. Bye! -Colin

hello! day 25 was very good. once we got up, we had some breakfast and then did stuff around the house. I built some furniture from IKEA, Daddy put a new tap on our kitchen sink, and we unloaded a trailer of stuff Daddy had picked up in Newfoundland. it was all pretty much getting stuff done, so that’s all I really have to say for now. Bye!

Hello! day 24 of our road trip ws long. we had to get up really early to get to the ferry on time. early as in 4:30 in the morning. after driving for a couple of hours we stopped to get some sandwiches for breakfast. once we finished those we made it to the ferry early and waited there for a little while. once we got on to the boat, we found out that the cabin we got was right at the front of the boat, which was really fun. on the trip, i knitted some more of a hat i am working on, played some video games, and read for a while. then we got some lunch from the on board restaurant. we had lunch while watching the 2nd Harry Potter movie. once that ended, i read some more, and then the boat arrived. the docking process was really fun to watch from the front of the boat. after we docked, we drove to our house in Nova Scotia and went to bed. that’s all for now. Bye! -Colin

hello! day 23 was very busy. we spent the whole day cleaning up and fixing stuff around the cabin. when i got up, daddy was alreay doing some chores. i got dressed and had breakfast then started sweeping up themain hallway and setting the rugs outside. once i got that done, we had lunch because that took the whole morning. once we had lunch, we got to work replacing the sinks in the kitchen and the bathroom. that was a very long project. i went out to beat the rugs to get dust out of them while daddy put the base for the sinks in both of the rooms. while he was working in the bathroom, daddy found a luna moth, which are very large. he showed me, and then we worked together on putting in the bathroom sink. once we got it in, we found out that the sink was not put in correctly and wouldleak more than the last one so we put the old sink back in and then put the kitchen sink in. after that we went outside and put up a hanging chair just becaus, then came back in, had supper, and went to bed.

Hello! day 22 was good. we got up, packed, and got in the car to drive to a different friend’s house. the drive was uneventful. when we got there, we spent a little time playing with and helping to train their very young puppy dog. after that, Tyson and i went and played on their Wii and a bit of Switch for Mario Party, had an early lunch, and spent the rest of the visit playing Mario Party together. after that, Daddy and i drove all the way back to Grand Falls, and stopped at a gas station that is known for having a large moose statue named Morris in front. we stopped and took a photo with Morris, and went to the cabin. then we went to bed. Bye! -Colin

Hello! day 21 was very good. once i got up, i played some games and then went to have breakfast. once i got dressed, me and Frannie, one of our friends, played a bunch of board games. we started with a Star Wars version of trivial pursuit, which took up most of the morning, and then started a game called Carcasonne. Carcasonne is a game where you put together castles and roads for points and whoever has the most points when the bag of tiles to build the things runs out. we played a bit of that, had some lunch, and then finished that game. then we did only the video questions for the Star Wars Trivial Pursuit. then we played with their dog, Margo, for a while. then we had supper, and went to bed. that’s all for now. Bye! -Colin

Hello! day 20 of or road trip was a short(er) driving day. this time, we stayed within the province! we started the day out in the cabin, we got packed up, and we drove to a place for Daddy to pick up a U-Haul. when we got there, the person that was going to give us it wasn’t there yet, so we went to a park to spend some time. we walked around for a bit, and then just sat and talked for a while. once the person came, we got the U-Haul and then drove all the way to the city of St. John’s. the drive wasn’t very eventful. when we got there, we visited our friends there. we had supper together, me and daddy unpacked, and we went to bed. that’s all for today. Bye! -Colin

Hello! Day 19 was very fun. when we got up, we decided that we would go do some golf. we went to the golf course that daddy grew up playing on. also, we decided to do the full 18 holes that were vailable at the course, which is unusual as we normally only do 9 of them. however, the weather that day was a lot nicer than the weather in Texas, so we could stay out and playing more easily. we decided not to keep track of our scores, since neither of us got into par on any of the holes, but we did pay attention to them. that took up almost all of the morning, and a part of the afternoon, so we didn’t have much time for anything else when we got back home. when we got home, i wrote a whole bunch of blogs and worked on an Excel spreadsheet. then we went to bed. Bye! -Colin
