BUZZ! BUZZ! As my alarm went off. “I woke up and got ready for the fishing trip said Mitchell.’’ “Jake wake up we have to go on the fishing trip.’’ “Ok said jake”. “ Will jake was getting ready, Mitchell hooked up the boat to the car.”

“We are on our way to the boat ramp,'' said Jake.” “ Ok I'm going to tie a rope to the boat and I will throw it up to you so you can drag the boat over to the pier,'' said Mitchell.” “ Ready I'm throwing the rope up, catch it,'' said Mitchell.” “It slipped. I can't grab it, it is in the water, “Said Jake. “ Noooo the boat is floating away. “Said Jake.”

Hey, Hey, can you please try to drag the boat back to shore. “Said Mitchell and Jake.” Sure. Said the guy on the other boat. “Thank you so much! Said Mitchell” No worries. Said the guy on the other boat.”

Come on jake let’s forget about that for today. Said Mitchell” lets just think about fishing. “ Said Mitchell” OK. “Said Jake”.
