THE HOUSE IN THE FOREST

Mark and John were driving to  a lake, Mark drove while john tried to use a map. when they arrived they unpacked the car and went camping, later when they were packing up, a bear tracked down the fishes smell to the boys . the bear jumped out of a bush and as the door was closing the boys ran for the vegetation on the edge of the forest.Mark and John with their lungs panting were jumping over fallen logs and sliding under thorny branches. after a while they stopped running, “do you think he’s gone?” John asked, “probably”Mark replied, “then lets head back” John said, “and risk getting eaten by that bear.” Mark retorted. they both decided to stay the night at an abandoned house.

That evening John wanted to go catch some fish at a nearby waterfall while Mark explored the house. John cast the line into the river above the waterfall. He felt a tug on his fishing pole as it arched. Then he pulled as hard as he could, and a fish flopped onto the shallow sandbar but it didn’t go unnoticed. the bear smelled the fish right away and charged at John but the bear tripped and fell off the waterfall, John shouted” INSTANT KARMA”.While John was flailing his arms around mark had found stairs leading up, mark was heading upstairs when there was a hallway stove and a door to the left.

As mark entered the room there was an wall full of flintlock muskets an mark said “this must be a  revolutionary war armory. he whisked around and john was behind him,”hi”said john, Mark asked “do you have any fish?” “Not at the moment” John said.when they woke up John said he’d seen a small tower near the pond, they packed what they could and walked up to it, there was a door. The door was old so they kicked it open and to the left lay an old remington rifle. On the other corner was, well a corner.  Mark picked up the gun and they continued on their way. Ther was one thing though, there was a metal fence  and with barbed wire on top. “How are we going to get up there?”Mark said, “over there ” John replied. There was a stack of stones and they were just high eSonough to jump over the fence. They were walking through the forest and they saw a bear, mark shot at it but missed and didn’t have time to reload. The bullet ricocheted off a rock, hit a branch and the branch fell on the bear, paralyzing it on the spot. A clearing appeared and they saw their car on the side of the road were they left it.

how rocket engines work

The idea of a rocket is very simple. Gasoline and liquid oxygen are pumped to a combustion chamber. A reaction is created and it enlarges therefore shoots the rocket up. To get propulsion the reaction is forced through a nozzle to get higher velocity. To keep a one pound objects in the air rockets burn two types of fuel, liquid fuel and solid fuel. The solid fuel is gunpowder but it explodes instead of propelling the rocket up and the liquid fuel is gasoline.

Solid fuel rockets have been the first to be recorded in history. The first rockets(solid fuel) were invented by the Chinese. The biggest problem was once it was lit it could not be stopped. So solid fuel rockets are only used for missiles, flares, and booster rockets.

A rocket engine is not a conventional engine. A conventional engine moves pistons up and down and turns a cars wheels.

Letter from Mama by Liam

Hello Lucy!

It’s me Mama. I’m here to say that life seems good in Lucky Diggins. Maybe I can come visit you for a few days if you’d like. I bet you are a great librarian. Maybe one day you can save enough money to build  an outdoor library. I hope I can visit your library.You are very smart to build a library because on a cold day you can read a book.  I hope that I like the Sandwich Islands and Brother Clyde will like this new place as well. Sending all my love.

 

Love, Mama
