I read to the boys about the wreck of the Endurance.
Sweet Boy#1–”My cabin would use a huge ice-breaking boat.”
Sweet Boy#2–”My cabin would have paper and board fires to warm up my cabin and my cabin would have long legs to catch all the flies in my cabin.”
Sweet Boy#1–”At my cabin there would be a poison ivy fire heating up the building.”
Sweet Boy#2–”Spiders like to be warm and there would be spiders that protect my cabin.”
Sweet Boy #1–”My cabin would actually have machines that would go out and grab dead Cicadas and put them in the ground in a greenhouse.” We were watching on “Planet Earth” about the 17-year Cicadas and how their millions of dead bodies fertilize the trees every 17 years giving the forest a marked improvement in growth.
Sweet Boy #2–”At my cabin there will be machines that will be crushing things. It will be very scary and dangerous, but I will control the machines.” Can anyone say: future Mech Warrior?
Sweet Boy #1–”At my cabin there would be manned spacecraft to Pluto.”
Sweet Boy #1–As we read about Titan, Saturn’s largest moon–”My cabin would send spacecraft to land on that moon to see what it’s like!”
Sweet Boy#1–”At my cabin there would be a machine that goes out and picks up plastic and metal to build new things.” We are learning about recycling in school.
Sweet Boy #2–”At my cabin there would be a long machine, it would go down and crunch garbage and take it from the bottom of the sea.”
Sweet Boy#1–”In fact at my cabin there would be a rocket boat that shot out toward the garbage the size of Texas.” Sadly, we learned from a friend who actually watches the news, that they have discovered a mass of floating garbage in the ocean that is the size of Texas. But luckily both of the big boys have already come up with solutions.
Sweet Boy#1–”Well, at my cabin the lights would last forever.” A bulb burnt out at our house.
Sweet Boy#2–”My cabin would have giant sea bananas.” We had just learned about sea cucumbers.
Sweet Boy #2–”We’re never gonna have haircuts at our cabin!”
Sweet Boy #1–”There would be a tunnel from (sweet boy #2′s) cabin to my cabin.”
Sweet Boy #2–”And (sweet boy #1) could come and buy one of my pets.”
Sweet Boy #1–”There would be an animal that did tricky jobs at my cabin.”
Sweet Boy #1–”At my cabin there’d be snowmobiles that drive during all four seasons.”
Sweet Boy #1–”In my cabin there’d be two valentines days a year.”
Sweet boy #1–”Momma, I will attract raccoons to my cabin by putting a bunch of garbage on the porch.”
Sweet Boy #1–( age=almost 6) “I think at my cabin there will be NASA Engineers that will build spaceships that are unmanned that will visit countless millions of Galaxies. That’s a hypothesis that I want to be real.”
Sweet Boy #2–”This is gonna be real when I grow up. This is gonna be my cabin ship and there’s gonna be snakes in my cabin ship. The snakes are snuggling the people in the ship!”
Sweet Boy #1–”My Cabin is gigantic, it’s about the size of Pluto!”
