Keeners is so fun

This summer, once I turned 12, I was finally old enough to go to Keeners. I’ve been wanting to go forever. Everything about Keeners is awesome – the river, the kids, the coaches.

O Canada!

Montreal and Ottawa are such great cities to visit. My mom grew up in Montreal, but unfortunately she wasn’t able to come with us. So, she created the perfect itinerary instead. We of course visited her childhood home, her school, where she and my grandpa went to college. But, we did some tourist stuff too. […]

For Thanksgiving this year, a group of my parents’ friends decided to go kayaking. Now that I started kayaking Chili Bar, I can join them! Here’s a video of my line in Trouble Maker – not perfect, but super fun!

6th Grade Yosemite Trip

Yay, we just got back from Yosemite! My 6th Grade class went on a field trip to Yosemite with Nature Bridge. It was really fun. We hiked a lot. And the food was really good. I had a field guide book that I drew in. I drew Half Dome and Yosemite Falls. During the day we […]
