A New Hobby...

As you should know by now I'm in Narvon, PA. But I've changed over from cars as I wanted to do, to computers as my hobby. (But I'm still into hamsters!!!) Now at this time I've broken four computers in the past trying to fix them.

Well, my expert computer building skill has come in handy...like hacking a WiFi password or getting the internet to work..those things. But... I do have my own computer. So what is it you ask? A Dell Optiplex 960. (I got it on eBay if you want one :) ) It's an old computer, 1998 to be exact. But it runs Windows 10 very well.

Well that's a wrap. See you next week...

Welcome back!

Hi! I'm Benjamin Fisher for those of you who may be the first to see my blog. I'm not 6 anymore, I'm 6x2 or twelve years old. I invite you to look at my past and learn about it.

Now those of you who are following me will ask, "Is Russia still alive? Or did you get new hamsters?"

Well, Russia has been dead for five years now but she is still on my mind. And yes, since Russia I've had nine hamsters now and they're all dead. (They only live for two years.) Also, I've moved three times since my last post. So you see the computer we had at the time broke and we only had that computer to use as the posting computer.

So if you think I just stopped, it's not true. I know I left you on a cliff hanger but I think I cleared up some things. See you next week! I'll get some more info on things in Narvon, PA.

My Field Trip to Gettysburg

On Friday, Mom and I went to Gettysburg.  When we were on the road we went straight.  We ate at McDonald's.  When we went farther we saw a sign that said "Gettysburg This Way".  When we got to Gettysburg we went to the Visitor's Center.  We went to the Museum.  We saw a DVD.

We saw a cannon.

  

I went on Little Round Top.

The End

(P.S. from Mom:  Benjamin completed this writing assignment as part of his homeschooling this past week.  Our trip to Gettysburg was Friday, October 26.)

Russia Update in Captions

Russia climbed the DVD's on the bookshelf.

Russia was sniffing the dust on the shelf.

Then Russia might sniff it clean.

(Note:  All photos were taken by Benjamin and the captions were part of a writing assignment.)

Russia's Demo

Russia is walking around on Dad's office chair.

Nathaniel is holding Russia.

Nathaniel is petting Russia in this picture.

Rushing Russia Update

Rushing Russia is doing well.  She is eating almonds from Daddy's granola.  She likes to stuff them in her little cheeks and save them for later.  Rushing Russia is big.  She knows how to hide from danger.  Rushing Russia is always clever.  She likes to hibernate during the day, but sometimes I wake her up to play.

 

(Editor's Note...these photos were taken by Benjamin with his little handheld camcorder...not the best photo quality, but he wanted to share them!)

Cats (An Informational Paragraph)

Cats have sharp, retractable claws.  They can see in the dark.  Showing cats at cat shows is a hobby called "cat fancy".  Cats are the most popular pets in the world.  Indoor cats usually live 12 to 16 years. Cats are a nice pet to have.

(Note:  We researched and wrote this paragraph about cats after reading the book Mrs. Katz and Tush by Patricia Polacco.)
