Invention #1

Hi it's me again. I made a rain catcher today and it actually works. We looked all around the house for stuff we can use because my grandpa didn't have the right materials to make one. I came up with the idea to use one of my brother's syringes. Mommy found a screw that fit perfectly to plug the hole so water won't come out. We put it on my deck. I hope we catch lots of rain. It even has numbers to measure it.

Here are some pictures.

Treasures

Hello, it's me Aidan. Today I am going to tell you and show you about my treasure chest and show you one of my treasures.

You will have to wait until you see the pictures, then I will tell you what it is and where I got it.


This is my treasure chest that I was telling you about. Now I will show you what it is and where I got it. 


 This is my Amethyst. Now I am going to tell you a little bit about my Amethyst.

Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz often used in jewelry. It is also the birthstone for people who are born in February.  Now I will show you a picture of an amethyst geode that formed when large crystals grew in open spaces inside the rock. You can learn more about Amethyst by clicking here.  

That is all that about my Amethyst. Here are some more pictures of me and my Amethyst. Oh and the most important part about my amethyst is I got it from my daddy.

Thanks for reading, I will post more treasures whenever I have time.

Adventure #1




Hi everyone. My name is Aidan. For my first adventure, I am going to tell you about my recent trip to Cass Railroad....



I went to a store that is also a restaurant that I never seen before. I got some very cool rocks to add to my treasure chest. I slept in a very old house. I saw and rided on a train. It was 100 years old and a steam engine.

Here are some pictures.
