 Today we read the poem red wheelbarrow. The wheel barrow is very shows and has two contrasting objects, a red wheelbarrow and a white chicken. I feel like it shows the working class the wheelbarrow who brings all the seed to the white chicken who is the rich upper class.

 Today we did another work sheet having to do with minimum wage. We had to work through how much money is left over with someone who is living on minimum wage and what expenses they have to pay. I feel like this is a good assignment because it will help us understand why we would want to work hard and make as much money as we can so that we don’t end up not being able to afford anything.

Then I celebrated Easter with my family.  Then I went to see my grandmother as well as Turkey hunted in north Georgia then went back to work. After all that I went with my dad to Jacksonville and we to fish for two days and then go visit my college. We fished show rivers catching bait early in morning. We hen tried to go shark fish off a pier and it turned out you can’t. So instead I decided to ent a a kayak and just paddle a shark bait off shore about 400 yards. The first night we did not catch anything on the shark rod because the crabs tore my bait apart. The second day we visited the hangar where the college I want to go to does flight training and then we shark fished that night and caught nothing. The next day we visited the college I want to go to called Jacksonville university and the campus was great it looked like down town Savanha with all the old oak trees and Spanish moss. I really ...
