Hi, it's Rowan. Over the summer my mom,Trin, Pallas, and I went to Rock City Park in Olean, NY. It was lots of fun. Here is where our adventure began.

When we got there Trin and Pallas had to go to the bathroom. While they were in the bathroom Mom and I saw this bear. When Trin and Pallas got back from the bathroom we got on it and took a picture. Then we went inside the gift shop and looked around. It had the biggest rock inside. Right in the floor.

When we got to the rocks, Pallas got a little scared but she decided to go down with some help. It was weird seeing how big the rocks were. They're bigger than my house. When we were walking we even saw an old sawmill. It was so cool!

Sometimes we would have to go up big stone stairs. You had to work very hard to get up. But it was still fun. That's Trin at the top, waving like a maniac.

When we were walking right around here, we saw a porcupine squeezed between two rocks. Trin and Pallas got really scared so we all ran away. Mom tried to get a picture of it but it started hissing and she screamed and ran too.

The view from the rocks was amazing.There were swings to sit on. They were so peaceful because we had been hiking and walking and were really tired from running from the porcupine.

When we were done we called ourselves the conquerors of Rock City Park. Wow! It was a great way to spend the afternoon.Thanks for reading!   

Peace and love,
Rowan ;]

One of my favorite things to do in summer is to go blueberry picking at Childs Blueberries up on a hill near us. At Childs, I pick out a blue bucket and we walked down by the pond to the field along a beautiful row of flowers. 

The blueberries looked great. At Childs they have different kinds of blueberries from around the world on each row. Each one tastes different but I know Jersey blueberries have three kinds...super sweet, sweet sour, and super sour.

There are no chemicals, so in the fields we pick and eat. Rowan just eats.

The best place to tickle is in a bush of mostly ripe blueberries. Tickling blueberries is when you wiggle your fingers so they break off and fall into your bucket. Otherwise we just pick. Sometimes me and Rowan find a place with shade and pick. Rowan...just eats!

I don't stay in shade for long. I try to keep moving for more blueberries. Rowan and Pallas like to stay there...and eat.

Rowan and Pallas kept eating but thanks to me and mom we got a lot. We kept on picking and picking and picking! Me and mom started picking the green ones out. And Rowan and Pallas...well...they kept eating!

We weighed the blueberries and got bottles of water. It didn't cost much.

On the way home Rowan and Pallas kept eating, and I did too :)



Peace out! Trin :D

Dennis is my godfather. I love him. He's happy. I like him. He's the best. He's funny. He's awesome. I see him at our house and at my school. He works at my school. He's a teacher. Denny wears boy stuff like a tie. We play games together with my mama and daddy. Like my matching princess game. And pop. [Note from Trin, she means Trouble]. I'm done now.

Beef n Barrel, Olean, NY
A while back me and my mom went to the Beef n Barrel for a lunch date. I ordered french fries, of course. They were wonderful! They're crunchy on the outside, floury on the inside with the exact right amount of salt.These fries are on our top ten list. We also had chicken wings. I like their wings because they have so much flavor, a little bit of spice, and they are very tender too.  

Then I had beef--it was amazing because it was so tender too. My mom had a salad. She really enjoyed it. Then we used two spoons on a Wonderfully Wicked, which is a brownie delight sundae. It has vanilla ice cream with hot fudge, whip cream, and most importantly... BROWNIES! My favorite. I loved spending time with my mom. Stop on down at the Beef n Barrel and get yourself a good meal!

Peace out! Trin :D
