 The River

It was lunch time on a Wednesday. Shining brightly the sun was up and it was nice out. Rheanna, Bobbi, Megan and me went to the river to catch fish. Rheanna is 13. She has blond hair and she loves fishing. Bobbi is Rheanna’s little brother. He is terrible two. His favorite thing to do is eating worms which make his sister sick. Megan is ten and in grade 5. Me, I’m fourteen. My name is Dylan.

We always look up what kind of fish we catch. The fish book I got for my birthday was a little muddy and wrecked but we always took it. First, we walked in the grass to the river. Walking slowly because of Bobbi, it was a 20 minute hike. Rheanna said, “I’m sweaty.”

I said, “We’re just about there.” I was leading everyone because I was the biggest. When we got to the river, we took off our shoes and socks. Then we walked down into the water. The water was warm. We saw a grasshopper on a stick. I picked it up.

Megan screamed, “Ahhh! Get it off me!” I grabbed it off her hair and put the grasshopper on the bush. Then we tried to catch fish. Sadly saw only a few. Suddenly caught two or three. They were goldies. We put them in a jar. After that we dried off and then went home. I kept the fish in my closet for two days. I fed them goldfish food and worms. Then I decided to take them back to the river. Riding my bike I went by myself. When I got to the river, I let them go by the rocks. 

“See ya! Bye!,” I said to them as I walked home.
