Noah's notes of 2013

My favorite part of 2013 was the cross country trip from California all the way to Michigan. And we didn't choose to travel the direct route, but rather a route curving up into Montana and South Dakota, and all the way down to Tennessee and Kentucky. Not to mention stopping for the sites along the way, like the Jellybean factory, our first stop. We also drove to Mount Rushmore, where we stopped to look around. One of my favorite things to see on the trip was all the wildlife. We saw many different animals, bears, elk, deer, bison, prairie dogs, and even a wolf.

The bad thing about moving was that we had to move from Monterey. Away from the beach where we could sit and relax, away from friends that we had fun with, and away from our tree house that we could play in.

Some of the good parts about moving to Michigan are that we get to spend more time together. We get to travel a bit more, like going to Sleeping Bear Dunes. We also were able to get involved in scouting, which we couldn't do in Monterey. We got to go canoeing on the river. We found out about the Robot Garage. And I got a new bike. Another thing I like here in Michigan is the snow, something we haven't had for a while.

But Michigan also has some hard parts, like finding a new church, finding new friends and looking for a new house. But I still wish the year would be 2013 again.
