La Junta

     I went to La Junta Colorado yesterday morning with some friends and came back this morning. We went to this old restored fort called Bent's Fort and walked around there for about two and a half hours. It was really cool! I love history, and this was all about the history of that part of Colorado. There was two floors full of restored rooms, and all the edges of the top floors didn't have any barricades so you could fall right over the edge. It was really freaky with all the little kids that were with us! Then there was a huge bell that we must have rung twenty times and annoyed everyone else in the fort.
     After that we went to Pizza Hut, and ate pizza, big surprise right? Then my family and my BFF Emma went to a cabin in the KOA in town and got it all ready for the night, then went downtown for a while and looking in some old antique stores and stuff. As we passed Sears, the guy who worked there was outside and said to Clare a bit oddly. " Live Free right? Don't let anyone else tell you what to do." We all just kinda stared at him and then left, thinking he must have been drunk. Then halfway down the street Clare stopped. " My shirt, it says Live Free!" Mom went back to apologize for thinking he was drunk and he apologized for looking like a creep. It was really funny! :)
     Then we went back to the KOA and swam for a few hours until it started to lightning and we had to get out of the water. We ate dinner and watched Duck Dynasty until 10. Me and Emma stayed up until 11pm passing a notebook back and forth between the bunk beds writing more of our book and then finally got too tired and had to go to sleep.
     The next morning we went swimming again and ate Subway and went shopping. Then we went back home. It was fun, thanks for coming Emma!
