It’s definitely different from the typical crowded vacation spots which many people prefer to visit.

Summer is coming soon. School will be out. I probably will ride my bike‚ plant flowers and go swimming at Ava’s house. We will have a great time. We will probably have my sprinkler out. I will be getting wet a lot. I am sure we would have a picnic and play in our clubhouse. We will swing on the swing set and go to McCurdy Park one day. Summer will be a lot of fun. I know I will get burnt a lot. But‚ I still think I will have fun. My mom might babysit for people. I will play Barbie’s with them if she does
