For Thanksgiving me and my family went to Michigan. That's where most of my dad's family lives. We stayed with my great grandma, who lives in a neighborhood for elderly people.
Ya know how people run over things in the road? Like squirrels? Well, while we were their a poor little squirrel got run over...many times. :( And on day me and my little sister, and our cousin Landon, decided to to rescue it from the road so that it wouldn't be able to get run over any more. Anyways, LONG story short, we used a plastic lid and a stick to scoop it onto the lid and carry it over to the little creek that empties into the pond a little ways down from where our grandma lives. I decided that we should bury it, but not a regular burial, a beautiful water burial. :p
So we kept it on the plastic lid and set it down into the creek bed. In this beautiful procession, the poor little squirrel, whom we named Ketchup on account of all the red blood, started to sink. So our cousin Landon grabbed a stick and attempted to save it! Well, as soon as he would get it back on the plastic lid it would sink again because it was soaked with water! Anyways, when Ketchup was about two feet from the pond, he fell off again and while my cousin Landon was trying to save him, he fell in the pond! And then my little sister tried to rescue the plastic lid and she feel in too! (Luckily I didn't fall in)
Yesterday night my grandma told me that the pond is full of pipes that channel the water in and out (yikes) and that a few months ago a story made the newspaper of some kids who put something in the water and stopped up the whole pond! Those grandparents sure are tattletales! LOL So hopefully we don't make the newspaper!
The whole point of this story was just to make someone laugh. So hopefully I made someone laugh, I know it made me laugh. :)
