On Sunday 22nd of August, my family and  I went for a picnic.  We went downtown, Toronto and went to Reva's house.  Reva was the one who had planned the picnic in her backyard. There were other children there as well, and other grown-ups, so you wouldn't get bored.  There was a play- ground, a homemade baseball field, and a rocket game.

The rocket game was a game called "Super Stomp Rocket".  It was a kind of game in which you have to launch 4 plastic rocket ships straight up into the sky and see how far up each rocket could go.  Just let me get it to you like this:  there's this black pole with a hole on the top, and it stands on a triangle-shaped stand.  You put a rocket on the pole, then jump on this big, fat, pink thing, in which the push of the jump gets forced from the pink thing, through a blue pump line, and into the little black pole, in which the iar pushes on the rocket and sends it up high in the sky.  Then it comes down to the ground, and sometimes you never know where they might land.  If they fall in our backyard, we say it is  "one of a kind".  If they don't, then we say that they are "out of this world"!  Now the playground had 2 swings, a slide and two other things in it.  There were also 2 boys that I made friends with, and their names were Noah and Alexander.  We had great fun together.  Noah even passed out cookies that had real M&M's in them.  We also played a game of baseball with some other kids as well, with also one kid's father as pitcher.  I think Noah's cookies were the best, especially the carrot muffins we brought, and the Cheesies that someone else brought.

Then later on, 2 people from the City Pulse station came.  One of them, a women named Wendy, had a speaker with her and the other person, a man, had an enormous video camera.  We each chatted with Wendy on the camera and, boy, did Wendy ask a lot of questions. After they left, we all went home,  just in time to see all of us on the Channel 7, 6:00 news with an update all about our picnic!  Amazing, huh?  Well, that's the story about our Sunday picnic.
