Today we went sailing. It was really pretty. I read a lot of the Magic Tree House books. We left Cuttyhunk and sailed to Martha's Vineyard. We are anchored off Vineyard Haven. I mostly played and read inside today, and I helped my grandma bake bread. I also liked to look for things with my binoculars. I saw people on the beach. I also helped look for channel markers and buoys. These red and green buoys tell boats where it is safe and deep enough to go.
The ferry boats come often into Vineyard Haven. They look like big, giant ships. They go right by our boat. We saw cars going on the ferry too.
Tomorrow we explore the island some more and go on a bus. We're going to check out the beaches and museums. I hope to see some bikes and go to the Native American museum. Maybe there will be a playground.

Can't wait to hear about Martha's Vineyard. I always wanted to go there. I sure bet that bread made the boat smell good. Love you

I read "Tonight on the Titanic," "Buffalo Before Breakfast," and one more, but I can't remember it's name right now. I also have a Little House on the Prairie book that I'm working on.
DeleteWe'll be back in Newport on Sunday. I miss you too!

Caitlin,
ReplyDeleteWhen you go to the Native American museum please take good notes. We study Native Americans. Maybe you can teach us some facts about the Native Americans?
We are spending some of our time preparing for our Open House. Mrs. McKeon keeps taking photos so we can discuss them with our parents. We are excited about Open House...
We miss you, but we hope you continue having fun and learning!!
With Love,
Your 2nd Grade Class
