The Vikings


Sorry about the break I had a busy few months. This is about the Vikings. The vikings were Scandinavian. They raided cities and found more land.(Britain, Ireland, Canada, Iceland France, Greenland, and Russia) Too bad they didn't actually find them people had already settled there. Here's a fun fact vikings actually didn't where pointy hats. Later people said they did so they would sound scarier. Vikings did actually have longships though.(Drakkers) Here is a picture of a longship. Add Image

Devil's Backbone


Today I went to Devil's Backbone...BORING...So I'm going to tell you about stuff there are four layers they are Dakota, Entrada, Morrison, and Lykin. . It is made of sedimentary rock. It was made by erosion for millions of years earliest the jurassic period. Dakota is the top layer made of sand stone. Morrison is the next, many fossils are found in the Morrison layer. Then the Entrada this a very reddish area. The last one Lykin, is the lowest layer used for irragation and other things. That is all for now

Mt.Vesuvius/Pompeii


As you may know there is a volcano named Mt.Vesuvius that erupted in 79 A.D. The town Pompeii was right next to it when it erupted. They were going on with there daily lives (shopping learning ect.) when it started to erupt. Ash flew into the air. Most people didn't know what it did so they stood and watched. Ash and rock covered the city preserving people how they were. Later archaeologists uncovered Pompeii and saw how people were preserved inside rock. Many archaeologists still study Pompeii and Mt.Vesuvius

Krakatoa


Krakatoa was one of the most powerful eruption on record. The eruption nearly blew apart the island. The people in Madagascar could probably hear it. There were tsunamis caused from the eruption. Ash and flew up to 50 ft. This changed the weather for about a year. The ash blocked the sunlight from getting to the surface. The days were dim. the nights hardly any moon. This is what Krakatoa did to the island.

being the youngest

It's kind of weird being the youngest of 4 children. It's kind of like they rule over you. When ever you want to do something they do it first. It's not all bad though. You get to do more things and they hurt you less. All you have to do is appeal to their better side and thats all. So try not to be sad. try things to get on their good side often.

eoseniphilic esophigitas

Well my mother wants me to write about this so here's what it is. Eoseniphilic Esophigitas (EE) is a disease that is in your esophagus. There are white blood cells in your esophagus that fight allergies. Unfortunately, it swells up your esophagus making it harder to swallow food. It also makes your stomach hurt a lot. Some poeple have it mild but sometimes it effects your life. In my case it effects my life. It causes me to stop what I'm doing or go home from school. Well as you can see, there are facts about eoseniphilic esophigitas.

Easter

Since easter is coming up I'm going to learn more about it. Easter represents how Jesus died and then three days later rose again. Earlier Jesus told his disciples he would die and rise again. When he died his disciples thought he was gone because they put a stone in front of his tomb. But as Jesus said he rose again. So that is what I know about Easter.
