Trailer Life poem

I sleep in a bunk bed,
And and I comb a bed head.

I eat cinnamon raisin bread,
And we Play Uno... I've got a red!
Away we go we said,

And we wait for what lies ahead.

A day at the zoo rehab center

Today was awesome. Me and my family woke up early and started out towards the big red caboose with big yellow letters on top that said: "ZOO" and had a big yellow fox painted on the caboose itself. We walked over to a bench that said: "rest your bones" and sat down. We waited. And waited. Then finally, a lady walked over to us. Finally. We walked over to a small building and met a man named William cutting breakfast for the whole ZOO. First we watched a elderly lady named Hellen feed a white albino raccoon named Marshmallow and then followed her to a cute coyote named Wile E. and she acted just like a dog. But 1 difference. She urinated right next to her bowl.  Next we walked to the handmade prarie dog enclosure and wached as the feeders walked into the enclosure and put the fresh veggies by each hole. We also saw a cage in the middle of the enclosure with a new little prarie pup inside. They fed him too. We where led towards a large round cage and saw the BIGGEST black bear I had ever seen. Geez he was BIG!!! We coaxed him into an airlock and me, mom, and dad had a chance to feed him a milkbone dipped in peanut butter through the metal of a chainlink fence.  He started to lick the fence of all the access peanut butter. Yummy yum. Then we and the feeders went into the enclosure once the bear was shut in the airlock and put berries, spinach, a catfish, and some melons in a large pile by the glass. We got out and let the bear out into the enclosure and me and it had a race on both sides of the fence but he just lumbered along behind me. 

Then we where off to the elk. A big guy he was. He had a shy little girlfriend that we could hardly see. We wached with narrowed eyes becouse of the narly wind as one of the feeders dumped hay onto a concrete slab which seemed to be his walk on (not in) breakfast table. He was like,  "Oohs and aahs, look how handsome I am! " With the way he acted. We saw some Mule deer and changed their water.

Then we went to the endangered Mexican grey wolves and saw those playful little guys scampering around, bouncing with every single step. "Ba boing! Ba boing! "

Then we went to the Javelinas. If you may be wondering what the heck are Javelinas, picture a pig.
=O Fun fact:
--------------------------
Javelinas are in no way related to a pig.
We went inside the enclosure  once the Javelinas were safely locked up in the airlock and scattered their food around the walled in enclosure and had a great time doing it. Fling-bonk! Fling-bonk!

Now it was time to feed the deer. Old mama, the first deer we saw, was not very friendly and backed away as we passed her. But the two other deer named Verbena and Velcro, were friendly as can be. Velcro was the friendliest and she wanted to be petted.

Next we went to a raccoon like animal called a Coatimundi. His name is Spencer and he had to have special stuff put into his food because he has seizures once and awhile. He was cute.

We went to the bobcats next and saw the feeders clean their litter box and feed them.

Then we came to the mountain lions. There was two. MoonShine and another. When they were safely inside of the airlock, I got to put Moonshine's food in her food dish. Then I came up to Moonshine and I put my hand up to the fence and she licked me. She licked me. Moonshine the mountain lion, I mean, not many kids get licked by a mountain lion.

Then we went to Barbie the baby porcupine and I went into the enclosure and got her food dish and put her food inside.

Then we went to Karaoke the coyote and fed her too. You are probably wondering why a coyote is named Karaoke. It is because she loves to sing her howl. Karaoke howling.... sounds fun!

Ok, so we are done with the feeding. We said goodbye to everyone and walk off. But if you think we were just going to walk away without seeing any more animals, you are mistaken.

We then saw the birds. We saw a Barn Owl, a Paragon falcon that hated dad and some others, too.

Then we went in the caboose I first talked about and saw a pretty landscape painted inside. Today was the most amazing day on our entire trip and still is.

Hopi Dogs

In Hopi, dogs are let loose. I met two black and brown dogs that would not stop following my dad. (well, that's a bit of a stretch.) Then at night I saw tons of dogs gathered in the parking lot. The next day, I met a moms dog and her baby pup.
I fed the mom roast beef (because the pup was still breastfeeding I think) and I felt really good about it. The pup loved me but the mom was pretty skittish. But after I fed her, she almost came up to me and licked my hand. That moment, I felt something warm glow inside me. I love the mom just as much as the pup.

Today...

Today we drove. Last night we stayed USA RV park in Gallop, NM. Me and mom took the first showers we had taken on this trip... Ok, we were not as smelly as you may think. The hole night was filled with train sounds, train sounds, and more sounds of trains. When we got up,  we waited for a little while and then started driving. We saw old school stuff in Gallop. We reached ABQ and ate at a COOP place. We then walked for what seemed like hours.
We got to a museum called Pueblo Culture center and looked around. Then we walked again. We stopped halfway through at Walgreens. Then we walked again. I fell and almost Spained my finger. Ow. Then we drove all the way to a old ZOO called Wildlife West. Tomorrow we will take a tour of this place. By the way, we are camping in a Prarie Dog town. P.D zing!!!

Hopiland

Our tour of Hopiland was amazing. We walked among ancient petroglyphs and pottery shards, visited some of the oldest continuously inhabited villages in North America, had conversations with friendly Hopi people, heard a refreshingly real spiritual perspective, bought art directly from the artists and learned so much!  There are no photos allowed in the villages, but here's some we had permission to take.
