The Cobra Event

I am reading a book by Richard Preston that is called The Cobra Event. I am about one-third of the way done with it so far. The book is like a scary medical mystery. There is a chain of unsolved deaths that are all related but no one can figure out how. But, yet they know that there are about to be more deaths...Richard Preston is the author of a bestseller: The Hot Zone. If you like scary books that you can't put down, then these books are calling your name...

Summer School Tutoring--- Day 1

This summer I had the choice to either go to summer school for fun or do something more productive like tutor little kids that need a little extra help... So I chose to help out some local 4th, and 5th graders understand what they need to know to be successful in life. It has been good so far, but I am only 2 hours into it. Today is the first day of summer school and the kids are just talking and playing games... The kids are actually really fun to be with, and I can see the potential in each and every one of them...

My Long Easter Weekend

My weekend was pretty dissapointing... I spent it at Mercy Hospital. My Grandma started having some bad chest pains Friday, so they hopped in the car and drove to the nearest emergency room, where the nurses immediately started doing tests. They found out that she had bad heart problems. They also mentioned that her small chest pains were the warnings of an upcoming HEART ATTACK. So they sent us to Mercy, where i've called home for almost five days... She had open heart surgery and a double bypass yesterday, now she is doing ok. But, she's in sooooo much pain:-(... She doesn't look like my grandma anymore... If you want, you can pray for her, her name is Mary Jo... I would deeply appricate it, and I know she would too:-)

Crashing Problem?

Is your blog crashing when others go into it? Well mine has had that problem recently... I had to delete most of my Gadgets on my sidebar to resolve the problem. You will definitely know when your blog is crashing because it suddenly stops loading your blog up and something like this pops up... It reloads to this page instantly.

Noel Train Explosion of 1969

Not many people know about the Noel Train Explosion that happened on August 3, 1969 at about 4:00 a.m. I am going to interview some local people that lived in Noel Missouri at the time of the Blast. My dad was only 13 years old when it happened, but he remembers what happened just like it was yesterday. It was never released to the public what was in the box car that blew, but it was a very devastating ordeal. Houses were destroyed, people hurt, and lives were changed forever.

My Magic Carpet Ride

Christmas time in Noel is amazingly beautiful. The town is peaceful and quiet.I had never seen Noel from a bird's-eye-view before. Then one night I got the chance! I found a magic carpet that could fly!
The first place I flew to was Elk River. It was covered by a thin layer of ice. The way the evening sunlight shimmered over the ice was so beautiful. There were ducks waddling and quacking all around. I could see the reflection of the bare trees in the ice. The river seemed so at peace; it was an amazing moment in time.
The second place I decided I needed to see was the bluffs. The trees were lightly covered with snow. There was no more vegetation clinging to the bluffs. I could still see the river. It was starting to get colder. There was an icicle hanging from the bluffs that reached to the ground. It was gleaming.
The third thing I wanted to see was the Christmas decorations. I flew all over Noel looking at the elaborate house decorations. As I was flying around in the dark, I remembered the star on the hill. I finally found the star after going in circles for what seemed like forever. The last Christmas decoration I wanted to see was the enormous Christmas tree that was located on the island in the river. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.
I was just about to go home when I looked up and saw a bald eagle. I had always wanted to soar with bald eagles, not just gazing up at them. So I flew upwards to the height the eagle was at. To my surprise, the massive bird didn't flee, but it circled me and called out to me. I started to fly away and the eagle was right at my side! We flew side by side for hours.
As we were flying, I heard a beeping noise. I woke up to find that it was all just a dream. A wonderful dream. I sat up in bed and whispered to myself saying, "Noel is soooo beautiful around Christmas time." I sighed. Then I got up so I could get ready for school...
