Andrew the Monkey: Nature Engineer
Words by Byron Thomas Olsen
Illustrations by David Hodges
Once there was a little monkey named Andrew. He just moved to a new tree. His new room had blue everywhere except in the middle of the floor, where there was a big yellow spot where he was sitting.
He liked his old room better. His old room was a block away, and a block is far for a monkey. His old room was green with a red spot in the middle of the room.

He liked his old room better. His old room was a block away, and a block is far for a monkey. His old room was green with a red spot in the middle of the room.

Andrew loved his parents. They were nature engineers. Nature engineers are people that make stuff out of nature. They made Andrew his very own bicycle.

Andrew missed his old house so much, that he climbed right out of his window and he started running as fast as he could. He was sure he knew the way to his old house.

It was getting dark and some sense got knocked into him. What if there are people in the house? If not, what would he do when he got there? Also, what if he didn’t actually know the way? Andrew didn’t know what to do, so he sat on a rock and cried.
Just then, his friend Ollie came along and asked Andrew what the matter was. “I’m lost and I don’t know my way home,” said Andrew. “Don’t worry, I’ll help you find your way home,” replied Ollie.
Andrew sat up and started walking with Ollie for awhile when they started sinking. Andrew looked down and saw quicksand! He quickly thought about what his parents would do. Then he saw some vines above him. He started pulling himself up and Ollie did the same.

Ollie knew the way to Andrew’s house, but it was far away. They started walking for awhile when a tiger came out nowhere! Andrew quickly decided to build a net to capture the tiger. “I’ll distract him while you build the net,” said Ollie. “Okay,” replied Andrew. Sure enough, they both did their part.
Once Andrew finished the net, he jumped on the tiger, and captured the tiger with the net. Ollie lost a few tail feathers. Andrew and Ollie walked and walked until they decided to get some rest. So they lay down and went to sleep.
The next morning they woke up and started walking again, and they came across a river. “How are we going to get past this one?” asked Ollie. “This will be easy,” said Andrew. “I’ll just make a bridge.”So sure enough, he built a bridge out of vines, and they crossed it without any problems.

Finally, they found Andrew’s house! However, just before they got there, a king Cobra jumped out of the forest. They ran back, knowing they couldn’t fight a King cobra unprepared.“I’m a good flute player,” said Ollie, “maybe I can hypnotize it.” “Good idea!” replied Andrew. Ollie took out his flute, and they walked awhile to get to the snake. When they finally got there, Ollie started to play his flute, and the Cobra moved back in the forest.
They waited a while and then Andrew finally got home! He said goodbye to Ollie and then went into his house.
“Mom, Dad, you won’t believe what I did today!”said Andrew as he walked in the door.
“We’ve been so worried about you. Where have you been?” asked his mom.
“I got lost trying to find our old house, but Ollie and I got back home no problem, because I’m a nature engineer, just like you!”

My friend Jakey
I have a friend named Robbie who's little brother is also my friend. He is standing right next to me while i am creating this post so I can show him how it's done.
Opus and Opus Jr's day off

On one fine and sunny day, Opus thought that his son should take a day off from school and that he should take a day off from work because they were both tired of school and work. So Opus slept in until 10:00. While his son got up at 6:00 to go play and get ready for the day. Then when Opus got up,
he just sat down on the Opus chair watching TV without getting ready for the day. So then, he got up and went to the refrigerator to get some Cherry Coca-Cola. After a couple hours at 1:00 Opus JR. said"Dad, we might as well do something at our day off- and stop drinking that. It's very bad if you have to much." Opus JR. slapped Opus's coke out of his hand."Hey!" Said Opus." That wasn't to much, it was only my twenty fifth can!" " Yeah."said Opus JR." we definitely got to get you in shape. Come on get ready because we're going to go on a walk today.
So off on a walk they went. They decided to walk to the pool, but Opus couldn't get in because he was too scared he would get a sunburn and they didn't have any sunscreen.
"Hey dad look, I can do a front flip with this rocket on my back off the diving board. See watch,"and Opus JR. did a front flip with a rocket on his back right before his eyes. "Wow!" said Opus "That was awesome!"Opus JR. swam until it was late and Opus said "Okay, it's time for bed now!"
So they walked back home together and figured out that Opus JR. got a sunburn."Now I'm glad I didn't get in the pool." said Opus. Then Opus tucked Opus JR. in bed and read him his favorite story, the lord of the rings.

The story of a snake


Once there was a snake. He got made by Legos and he got put on a desk. Most of the time he just sat there. But occasionally he would be played with so one day he fell behind the crack behind the desk. So for a while, he just sat there in the dark. Then he got taken out of the dark and was blogged about. He felt so special. Then in his moment of glory, he got taken apart........... blackness, he saw nothing but blackness for ten minutes. Then he saw he got turned into something else something strange, some incomplete creation. He got blogged about. To bad he couldn't read an couldn't find out that he was an unfinished spider!
Sorry
Sorry I couldn't post all week. I had cub camp and it was for the whole week, so I didn't have time to blog.

The evil wizard
Once there was a boy named Byron I know this story because I am Byron. Well, anyway, I got cursed by an evil wizard named Porter(dad isn't really a wizard, I was just mad at him one day) that when I wake up, I can do whatever I want till 9:00 A.M. Then, I have to practice my piano and read for 30 minutes, do a daily household chore of porters bidding, and finally,write one page or type one page in my blog. So one day I wake up and it's 8:20. Of course, I read for 30 minutes because I love reading and it's good to get one chore done. So now it's 9:00 and I have to practice my piano and I do but then.......Uh-oh. I can't think of anything to write. It's a bummer because the evil wizard Porter is actually my dad. So I walked into his room and said,"How could you put this curse on me! Why am I the only ten year old boy on the planet who has to do chores on the entire planet. I don't even know what to write about!"Then, the evil Porter said"Fine, once a week you don't have to do chores, but you'll have to scratch my back 10-15 minutes." And they lived in peace from now on.

The Hungry Hamburger named Hammy
Once, there was a hungry hamburger. He was hungry because the lunch lady never picked him to be eaten. So when the restaurant was closed,he hopped out of the hamburger bin. Then the others said"Where you going Hammy?" "I'm going to go and get eaten because I'm hungry." He replied "But your going to die out there!"They said. All hamburgers know that once you get out there, you'll either get squished by a boot, run over by a car, or worse, get wet! Hammy shuddered at the thought."I know" He said,"but I'll die anyway from starvation.""OK bye Hammy, we'll remember you!maybe" So he went off and he saw a house. He decided to walk in and check it out. Yes! they were having hamburgers today! Well, that was easier than I thought. Thought Hammy. So he hopped on a plate in the kitchen.
As he was being eaten the women said"Wow honey, this is delicious, how'd you make it?"

The lonely shoe
Once there was a shoe. He was a very lonely show. He was lonely because his owner flushed him down the toilet and now he was living in the sewers. So he decided to get out through an open manhole. He got out and saw the Ifle tower.He knew that his owners live in Paris, but he had no idea where this strange place was. Maybe because I'v never been worn and walked outside before, he thought. So he decided to take a look aro-VROOM!!The shoe ducked back in the manhole as a motorcycle drove by super fast, but it cut off the tip of one of his shoelases." OUCH!!!" he screamed.(That would be really painfull to the shoe) But he got up and tried again, then he hopped super fast-maybe the fastet he ever ran to the nearest sidewalk."Whew!" He said,"I'm glad I went to shoe school" Then he decided to walk around. Uh-oh,he thought. My owners house is on the other side of the street. Then he saw a telephone wire passing over the street. Then,he decided to clime up the telephone pole and climb on the telephone wire upside down with his shoe lases tied together. He saw lots of shoes doing it before. So he climbed on the pole and tied his shoe lases together wile he was upside down. Then, he pushed of the pole and went sliding down a telephone wire,"Woohoo!" he yelled"This is awe"BOOM. He crashed into the other telephone pole."Ouch" He muttered. So he climbed down the pole and hopped into his owners house where he went in his shoebox with his roommate in it,and he took a good nap.
New stuff
All right,now you now that I always like to do pictures in my posting. Wrong. Now, I'm going to type stories that I make up.

Snakey

Say hi to my favorite snake snakey! He's perfectly harmless except when he's harmful and spits venom at you and try's to bite you. I made him all by myself(witch wasn't very hard) from a Lego kit. I always have him on my desk, but now I'm thinking of changing him into a spider. I'll let you know if I do. If I do, please don't be to sad because I can always make him again for you!
Baseball


I love baseball if you can't tell by something in my blog. It's my favorite sport. Sometimes I even play pitcher! Every inning every body switches positions,so I'm not always pitcher. We got all the way to 3erd place in the playoffs vs. the volcanoes. If us, thunder just won that game, I would have another trophy for you to see.

At the beach
All right. This is sort of weird because I didn't really mean to go swimming. You see we had to pay 5$ for an adult and free for a kid. We actually went on a'nature adventure' as mom called it on her blog, but there was a beach there so I didn't want to waste our money for nothing so I asked mom"Can I go to the beach?" Of course, they said yes because they're super nice. I didn't spend a lot of my time in the water though, because I was working on my best and only sand castle I ever made. It took way long because I was only working with my bare hands, but in the end I finished.
