    Do you always wonder what people are doing? Do you try to spy on them but you get caught? If you really want to spy on them, read my version of spying. You really get what you want to know, if you do it at the right time. If you want to do my version of spying, keep reading.

    First, you have to get the right materials which are, a notebook, binoculars, and walkie talkies. (You also need a pencil for the notebook.) The notebook goes to the Notetaker. The binoculars go to the Watcher. The walkie talkies go to the Distractor and the Notetaker. (Make sure the walkie talkies are strong and clear.)

    Then you have to pick jobs. They are the Distractor, the Notetaker and the Watcher. The Distractor asks the person questions, and tells the Notetaker through the walkie talkies. The Notetaker writes down the information. The Watcher spies on the person at the end. 

    After you pick jobs, pick someone to spy on. Pick someone who seems suspicios.  Write down questions about them. These are the questions that the Distractor will ask the person. One type of question is something about what they are doing. Like what are you doing with that thing in your hand? Or something like that.

    Next, the Distractor asks the person the questions that you wrote down. Then the Distractor tells the Notetaker what the person said through the walkie talkies. Don’t tell the Notetaker in front of the person.  Instead,  the Distractor distracts the person and while they’re not looking, tells the Notetaker. For example, if there is something on the ground, ask the person to throw it out. Then you tell the Notetaker the information while the person is throwing the thing out.

    You have to be sneaky for the next step: you have to spy on the person to see if they were telling the truth. This is where the Watcher comes in. First, the Distractor goes back to the Notetaker and sees if he or she has the right information. Then the Watcher start spying!!! If the Watcher makes noise he or she will get discovered, so be careful!

    Now you know the truth!!! Don’t keep it a secret if the person was lying. Have the Distractor tell the person that you know the truth!  This is the most fun way to figure out things! You will have alot of fun doing it!!! Be careful!!! You might be the next victim!!! Good luck!!! 

         I had a great time at Lake George! I did a lot of fun stuff! And saw a lot of cool things! Do you want to hear about my vacation? If you do keep reading.

      I saw a lot of cool animals. Some I never saw before, some I never saw up close and some were annoying. These are the animals that I saw:

     First I saw something in the lake. It was splashing and was brown with a big tail. It was close to the rocks. I looked closer and I saw a beaver. I saw them at night a lot. They were making a lot of noise, a gnawing sound. There was two or three of them. They took a lot of bark off of a tree that fell down.

     The next animal was a bald eagle that flew over my boat. It was 20 feet in the air and it was huge and brown and white. It was fastly soaring through the sky. Then it flew away and I looked for it, but I never saw it again.

         The worst of the animals were the geese. They annoyed me with their loud squeaky quack-like noise. I screamed at them and scared them away, but they still came around the campsite four or five times. I wished they would leave us alone, but every day they kept coming back to our campsite.

      The last animal was what I thought was a little black cat with a bushy tail, but it was a mink. It was black and furry. Its body looked like it was stretched out like a ferrets body. It was fast and it scurried around. It lived under rocks in a shallow cove. I saw it twice.   

       It was so exciting to see all of those animals, (except for the geese, they really annoyed me.)  I had never seen that much animals in 1 place besides the zoo. Go to Lake George and you will have a great time! J
