Great Wolf Lodge
Three weeks ago we went to the Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City. Boy, did we had fun. We swam and swam
and when we were finished we went back and swam some more. Grandpa says he might take us again on Josh's birthday. We all
went to the lodge except for Dad who had to work. I'm sorry he couldn't come. We had a great time, but it would have
been better if Dad was there also.

My Encounter with the Chupacabra
by Erik
It happened during the summer. It was a day like today, only a little bit warmer. I was visiting my grandparents
at their farm which was located on Stinking Creek. Suddenly I heard a noise by the garbage cans. I went to investigate
and standing there I saw the strangest looking animal you can imagine. It looked like a hairless dog with big teeth and a
tongue hanging out of its mouth. I could smell its terrible breath. Instead of standing on four legs it stood on two
legs like a man, a very ugly man. I was so scared I didn't know what to do. I tried to run, but my feet wouldn't move.
It stopped eating garbage long enough to look at me and start to growl. I thought I was going to be the creature's lunch.
Then, off in the distance, I heard the strangest sound I ever heard. The animal heard it too. It cocked its head to one
side in the direction of the noise and began running through the forest toward the sound. It ran on all four legs and seemed
to be in a hurry. I don't know what that noise was, but I think it might have been Mrs. Chupacabra calling her husband home
for dinner. My grandpa said it was probably a coyote, but I said "I don't think so. How do you explain it walking
on two legs?" My grandpa couldn't answer that question.
Whatever it was, I hope I never see it again!
