Focus on the Founders Speech

For a homeschool a group I got to be in a speech competition about John Adams. I had to be against 20 kids in the state. I didn't win but I had a good time.

Late Recap of Hunting Season

This is a very late recap of hunting season. It started in February when I put in for a general rifle season mule deer tag in October and a youth bull elk tag in September. I ended up drawing only the deer tag. Now zoom to September. Duck hunting go cancelled so that I could practice with the .22-250 for the first time since that is what I would be hunting with. Zoom again to October 25th, opening day. We drove up to where we were hunting. That whole day we saw only saw some deer that had already been shot. During the season we by accident drove onto some private property and not even a mile into it we saw about 5 300 class bull elk and about 50 cows, and right across the road at a little water hole were about 4 mule deer bucks. 3 to run away while the one that was a spike just stood there staring at us even when my uncle was yelling at it. I was mad because I couldn't shoot any of the deer. They were the only bucks we saw during the whole season. We saw a few does during the season as well. So I guess I have to wait until next year.

School

Well homeschool is back and with that I am in more homeschooling groups. I am in Youth 4 Freedom again. I am reading Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris for it. I am in a new group called Vanguard Youth. Vanguard means the front of the army. We are learning lots of new things.

Baseball

This year I didn't get to play baseball because it got in the way of scouts but I just got an opportunity. My friend Jason's baseball coach called him and asked him if I wanted to play on the team for a tournament in Roy and I of coarse said yes. The day of the tournament I was very excited. We lost the first game and we thought that was the end of the tournament when a team asked us if we wanted to play them since the team they were supposed to play against forfiteted. We played them and we won. That was now the end of the tournament.

Scout Camp

I just recently got back from Scout Camp. We went to Camp Bartlett. I ended up earning 6 merit badges. They were Archeaology, Indian Lore, Forestry, Fish and Wildlife Management, Reptiles and Amphibion Study, and Wilderness Survival. They were all fun merit badges. Our camp name was Seton. I had lots of fun.

Another Homeschool Thing

If you don't already know I am homeschooled and there are a bunch of things people will organize for homeschoolers. I am something now very new called Vanguard Youth and the people running it will be trying to get us to transition to the scholar phase. (Thomas Jefferson Education) I can't wait.

Another Fun Day

Today right after Patriots I went to the castle park by my aunts house and played with my friend Garrett. We went down to a river close by and waded in for a long time. It was cold. But it was a fun day. And then we came home and had chicken for dinner.
